The theories that reality/universe is a hologram get a bit of a boost. Interesting reading at any rate.

This actually makes a lot of sense. After watching the Holodeck scenes on the original Star Trek, I often wondered if our multidimensional representation of reality is represented as two dimensions in our memory. Then, I got to wonder, "What if everything is like that?"

Fascinating...as Spock would say.

They’re not talking about a literal hologram but about everything we experience as three dimensions in the middle of the universe actually being the way we perceive two dimensional effects that really occur only on the outer bubble of the expanding universe. Interesting theory that could also explain God’s place in and impact on the universe if one is inclined to look at things that way.

... 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.

Mmmmmm ... Pringles.

I don’t know about the universe being a hologram, but I’ve recently described Obama as a hologram.
