Hi everyone
I would love to get some feedback on this silly idea I had when thinking of the balloon analogy.
Another way to achieve the same effect - at least in 2 dimensions - is to move a projector further away from a screen - everything expands relatively.
If the universe is a 2d hologram - could not the appearance of expansion be caused by some lensing effect at the source of the hologram? For instance - if the source of the hologram was retreating/shrinking, or expanding, could that not effect the measurements of universal expansion?
Please be gentle - I am just a lawyer.
Cheers
Steve
