OK thanks. We can say some things about computer memory using the holographic principle can't we ? Wikipedia says, "For a given energy in a given volume, there is an upper limit to the density of information (the Bekenstein bound) about the whereabouts of all the particles which compose matter...

Re: computer thing. Computers are objects, their memory hardware is built in 3D. You may be able to argue that the electrons used in the memory are point particles. Maybe it is too much of an abstraction to say that memory and monitors work in less than 3D. Or maybe you mean that the binary 0 or...

Thanks for taking the time to watch that. I got his book Visual Intelligence which is a cool read. I won't side track into the ins and outs of cognitive science, but the Hol Pri did sound like it was saying analogous things to human perception as we understand it, and I didn't see that discussed...

Can I refer back to what Craigi said that the idea that there is a reality in 2D at the edge of the cosmos is a popularisation of what the Holographic Principle is really all about. Is it an inaccurate simplification of ideas which are beyond most folk's mathematical training ? I watched a few...

Hi, thanks, I did look at Susskind's lectures, like the one about black holes, and stage debates. I like his stuff, really interesting. I like him, too. I think cognitive science has a lot to do with physics as cognition provides the basis of understanding the physical world. Cognitive...

Well, OK. Did you ever hear anything about Donald Hoffman, visual perception scientist ?

Can i ask a side question ? Our brains are supposed to construct a 3D experience of the world from information in the curved plane of our retinas. Would that be analogous in any way to the holographic theory ? (Granted that retinas aren't truly 2D).
