Description
Holograms have always bedazzled the mind.  First invented in 1947 (http://www.holography.ru/histeng.htm), holograms are man-made mirages, formed by mirrors and lasers, that mimic the appearance of physical reality.  In the late 20th century, cosmologists began using the holographic model as a metaphor to explain the universe.  Under this view, the fundamental stuff of the cosmos is not matter but information; information that somehow expresses itself in the form of the physical world.
