Holography is considered as one of the most remarkable discoveries in modern times. Nevertheless for its first decades it seems to be getting forgotten.

Originally stepped up back at the end of the 1940s to improve electron microscopy, it can not fulfill this function and the wish of its discoverer hungarian-british physicist Dennis Gábor. Due to sources of pure coherent light, which are indispensable for optical holography, being not yet available, not even Gábor himself can locate a field of application for this phenomenon. He can neither recognize at that point of time the meaning and the potential of his discovery and with it the influence this new medium would have on our daily lives one day. Nor can he imagine the plenty of phantasms emerging from this phenomenen. Phantasms, which seem to be mostly one step ahead of applied holography.

With the discovery of laser light at the beginning of the 1960s, for the first time ever it becomes possible to record and reconstruct a real three-dimensional image of an object. What once simply starts as a little rainbow coloured picture of a toy train, today finds its applications in a vast variety of different optical and acoustical fields.

It is as remarkable as the phenomenon of holography itself, that it could never prevail as a popular medium like movie, TV, radio, the internet, print media, etc. Especially when keeping in mind all the phantasmatic stories which emerge from this medium. A lot of dreams, hopes and promises that holography never made by itself, but some of them is trying to keep.

blog.holographie.eu accompanies my scientific work on holography, which would like to give holography an attention, that elsewhere is mostly refused to it. It is of course initially interested in based techniques and technologies of holography and how it works. Moreover it is also interested in these upcoming phantasms and their stories arising from possible abilities of holography. Especially against the backdrop of holography seems to be reaching a point, where its possibilities and abilities catch phantasms.

This blog would like to serve as a sketch book for unprotected ideas, of which some maybe become expanded, while others are not haunted any further, but wants to be told and should not be unmentioned forgotten.

Star Trek: TNG - The big goodbye

The Federation wants to establish diplomatic relations to insect Jarada. Picard trys to learn their complicated language to welcome them. He enters the holodeck and immerses into a simulated world of fictive charatcer Dixon Hill to relaxe from exertions caused by his lessons and to advance the learning process by a non-pathologic separation of consciousness.

Captain Picard gives a late explanation of the mechanics and the application of the holodeck.





It is remarkable, that the lipstick in Picard‘s face, that is caused by the kiss of a holographic projection, is still visible after he has left the holodeck.

Captain Picard gives an enthusiastic reports his grew about the exact replica of the real world in the holodeck:





On his second visit Picard is accompanied by Data, historian Whalen and Dr. Crusher. A scan by jaradian space ship causes a malfunction of the holodeck:






The malfunction among others deactivates the security protocol, which protects visitors of the holodeck from deadly injuries. At first Picard, Data, Crusher and Whalen do not recognize the danger. After La Forge and Wesley are able to open the holodeck, gangster Cyrus Redblock and his body guard decide to rob the Enterprise. But trying to leave the holodeck, the get dematerialised:





There is also a german version of this entry on holographie.eu.
