He showed that the physics inside a hypothetical universe with five dimensions and shaped like a Pringle is the same as the physics taking place on the four-dimensional boundary.

Wait a minute!

Last year it was, "In the beginning there were grapefruits, and grapefruits were plentiful." Now it's Pringles.

So which is it? Is the universe fundamentally made of grapefruits, or Pringles???

All this research is making me hungry. I've got to go get a pizza.

So the Enterprise Holo-Deck was real.

Data, create a holo-deck scenario where there are no more liberals........

This is actually exceptionally significant. For any physicists in the FR audience:

Bohm is the bomb.

Loop quantum gravity rules, string theory drools.

Many-Worlds is correct.

Gravity is the only force that might transcend the brane barrier.

That is all.

Hologram Ping...

Our world may be a giant hologram

Maybe our reality (three spatial dimensions, one temporal dimension) was just a big a$$ quantum fluctuation in 2D space that added distance/time to the works. Maybe that was the "Big Bang". I can buy that more than reality is just a holographic projection.

The idea presented is generally used to conceptualize the passage of time. Take a holographic picture and rotate it to the right(left,up,down,etc.) slowly. This represents the material action in the Universe. The problems with this idea are numerous. Everything is prewritten and allows no variability due to the intrinsic nature of holograms being the main one. It’s interesting but most definitely false.
