The holographic duality, discovered in 1997 by Juan Maldacena, says that events inside a region of space that involve gravity and are described by string theory are mathematically equivalent to events on the surface of that region that involve particles and are gravity-free.

Interesting stuff.

You can certainly add me to your Ping List.

Physics is ripe for a breakthrough, a different way of looking at things. I hope the “strikingly literal” comment turns out to be true.

"The strange properties of superconducting materials called “cuprates”...may correspond to properties of black holes in higher dimensions. "

Well, I guess we ought to press on. We're already in the evil parallel universe where America spies on it's own citizens, Russia lectures us on Freedom and the Boy Scouts are gay.

What's the worse that can happen? Either we find our way back to normality or we get sucked into a black hole.
