One of my favorite results. I don’t get it but I like it. Holography is based on the idea that the information content of a volume can be reduced to its surface. The 3rd dimension is an illusion!
This is why I don’t go from 2x2 to 2x2x2. If 2d is good enough for the universe..

I did say I don’t actually get it 😄
Still like it though, including my misunderstandings
Another way to view this is that we can understand a three-dimensional phenomena from very far away by observing its two-dimensional representation through a telescope.
