yeah just watched this through now and its hard to dumb down holographic principle to gcse level... in fact i think its next to impossible to dumb it down to a point that its understandable... my mind just blanked...

This. They really do go a bit OTT in Horizon. Some sort of ambient electronic music, blurry shots of a city and that narrator. Repeat.

I enjoyed it. The holographic principle is interesting. They always wheel in Prof. Seth Lloyd and his lovebot (quantum computer). I can't get over his hair.

they also without fail, always try and spice things up by at around 45mins in revealing the 'experiment' which will 'finally... provide answers...'

then never provide any answers.

Are they using tilt-shift HDR video cameras for those panning night scapes?

Looks like some mad Enter The Void shit.

I watched this and definitely found it entertaining and interesting, but I think anyone who hasn't done physics past GCSE would struggle to understand the concepts even at a basic level. The stuff on quantum computing is fascinating. The idea that they can get a computer to perform a 1 AND a 0 at the same freakin time is just incredible.
It was interesting hearing about the two new theories on holographic projection and the self contained mathetmatical universe as well, though I would have liked to hear a bit more on the subjects.
I generally really enjoy hearing anyone talk about anything they are excited and passionate about, so when it comes to this kinda stuff that I am really interested in I find it fascinating to learn. I guess they have constraints though in making the show where they can't get too complicated and lose their target audience.
Really gotta find that Higgs boson.

reality is nothing but waves of energy intermixing.

we have a collective consciousness & this effects everything in our world!

we are all made from the same energies (elements)....
