BASICALLY. Touchable holography? Get out of this town!
Hahaha, baby elephant! In your pocket! The future is here, my ninjas. BALLIN’!
That is pretty magical, if you think about it. But somehow it doesn’t seem that magical in watching this video, right? If you just watch this video it’s like “yes yes, nerds on a Sunday, I know.”
So I fixed it to bring the magic out.
Better. (Via Common.livejournal.com, basically the most important science site out there right now.)
P.S. you can actually read about, like, what this IS over here.

my ninja, please
what happens…if like…okay, let’s say you’re being a hologram, k? and you go peepees, can someone touch the “pee-gram” (TM) and it will feel like you’re peeing on their hand?
because if the answer is “yes”, we are sitting on a goldmine here
May I offer the makers of this video a hearty DUHHH on a silver platter for stating that this “holographic image” is brought to us by the magic of “concave mirrors”?
Like, you mean, the magic holographical projector was broken?

I’m sorry. I didn’t realize that being a nerd on this site is a bad thing. ALL APOLOGIES!
I meant that affectionately?
Are you kidding, this place is crawling with nerds!
Hence, the confusion!
Wooh. Glad we cleared that one up.
relax
Computer, initiate program: tiny white elephant running around on my hand.
that was my favourite episode.
All I’m saying is, Kanye was already doing this shit on his Glow In The Dark tour…. WHY WON’T YOU LET HIM BE GREAT??11!!!?!?!!1!!
I’ve almost come to grips with the fact that this little handheld elephant, albeit a holographic one, may be the closest we ever get to a Lindsay-post in this new age of Videogum. Almost.
Time Traveller arcade game circa 1991, y’all!

What will Tokyo come up with next? Mother fucking blue jeans?
On that website it says, “I hope that the researchers plan on sticking to holograms of balls.”
*grin*
(does anyone remember Bebe Neuwirth playing a touchable hologram in the Jim Belushi vehicle “Wild Palms”?)
(because I just remembered that)
viva anti-scientology wild palms! — also, at 0:37 “i’m crushing your head!”
I wish that the person belonging to the hand would say: “Hmmm. Rain drops keep falling on my hand.” That would make this Friday sweet.
To answer your question: I do! I want to have sex with a hologram! (Not the little elephant, though. No homo!)
No holo-pachydermo?
TOUCHABLE HOLOGRAMS ARE FUCKING AWESOME.
There, I said it. And I meant it too.
AGREED. But where the FUCK was WILL.IAM at? I need HIS POLITICAL opinions all in MY EYES (that IS THE LAST thing I need IN MY EYES. After CLOROX (r) bleach).
PS. Hlebtastic I WANT to put you in the novel as A RATHER PIVOTAL character. THAT COOL?
I’d be honored.
I hope CNN starts using this!
A bunch of nerds and not one of them is an A/V guy? what are the odds?
I hope the holo-shed doesn’t go on the fritz again. I can’t deal with Evil Lincoln today.
I actually gaffawed when i heard the audio of your video edit.
Surprise lol’s are the best lol’s.
I have NO DOUBT IN MY MIND BODY OR SOUL that the first viable commercial application of this technology will be remote e-peeing in people’s hands.
AGAIN, that was supposed to be a reply to the guy who said something about e-peeing in people’s hands up there. I did not independently, simultaneously come up with the idea of online holographic watersports on your hand.
Isn’t this the technology Megan Fox is made out of? S1m0ne 2.0!
Uhh- I wouldn’t want to have sex with a halogram, I got a man at home for that.
So Where the Wild Things Are IS the answer.
I don’t know guys. That petri dish full of water sure looked aroused.
punctilious post. simply one decimal where I quarrel with it. I am emailing you in detail.
Why does the water have mysterious floaties in it? That”s gross and unscientific. I’m a republican.
