From Hieroglyphs To Holograms
Ancient hieroglyphs -
pictures of objects
that represented
words and syllables
centuries ago -
Seven hundred
signs (no vowels),
sacred carvings
of old Egypt
Left to right
right to left
or straight down
thoughts like
magic
shown!
Think
ahead
of time
beyond mere
projections
in 3-D
Material
encoded, then
diffracting light -
An image “shone.”
Today’s illusions
on tomorrow’s screens
means special glasses
won’t be required for
modern holograms!
