I don't suppose any of these questions will be answered (although I hope that if a discussion does prevail, it will be ordered and amicable). Given a semi-random light field, is it possible to create a hologram that will reconstruct such a semi-random pattern. Danny Bruza gave a talk on lighting at PCGG2, where he used a broken lightbulb as a diffuser.Ĭan you record a fractal? I don't mean the image of a fractal, but an actual fractal. To me, this was not talking about holography, it was simply name-dropping.Just because someone is 'famous' does not mean that this person is all-knowing! Also, in Facebook, I found people would simply fan their ego.įor example: Is there any artistic merit in a display hologram, simply because it's a display hologram, vis-a-vis classical art appreciation? To what do we compare it: Paintings? Sculpture? Can we transcend 3D and create 'extra-3d' illusions? Is there an Escher equivalent of a hologram?ĭoes anyone have any interesting or creative lighting methods. They all seem to wallow in the knowing of some 'famous' holographer, and whatever information these display holographers had was always justified by an 'expert' and 'famous' holographer. The problem I had with Facebook (no longer have a Facebook account) is that all the older display holographers simply talked about other display holographers. We talked about colour in holography, about the characteristics of exposure and how to get an idea of 'enough exposure'. You may remember I asked if the eye was bandwidth limited and we carried on this discussion for a while. My interest in this was brought about by thinking of the hologram and the viewer as sub-components of a machine with their response functions.

Petr, you and I talked about the eye as an electronic/computing machine. I used to talk about the physics of holography. Martin would bring up some very interesting posts on the chemistry of holography don't know if he looks in nowadays. There was a wealth of information and discussion about topics rarely, or never, seen in other publications or books from a very knowledgeable base. The history of the forum was what made it unique. Without this rich history, the forum means nothing. reddit holography corner and transfer old posts there. I am not sure if it is possible to make e.g.

The best property of this forum is exactly THE history - almost everything concerning holography has been discussed here, and you can still find it here. Lobaz wrote:This forum has a long history, that's why it uses quite old school backend.
