The Holographic Universe (Michael Talbot). Anyone read it yet? I have it, and so much of it seems 'cock on' that it sends shivers down my spine...

Thoughts on this book?

i have this book, I have just begun reading it. even outside of a magickal perspective, I would advise reading it. It is highly informative and contains a wide variety of metaphysical concepts that do border on the magickal (for who can say where the boundaries lie?). so far, i've enjoyed it very thoroughly.

Scientific American Has a few articles about this theory - it's very interesting, but of course still extremely theoretical.
Here are some more links:

http://preterhuman.net/texts/strange_information/Scientific%20American%20Information%20in%20the%20Holographic%20U niverse.pdf
http://cosmos.asu.edu/publications/chapters/chaitin_book.pdf
http://www.phys.huji.ac.il/~bekenste/Holographic_Univ.pdf

This theory is a super-string theory - basically saying there are 10 to the 60th power strings which define the universe as we see it.
It's very elegant, but we don't (yet) have the means to prove it.

Hope these articles help.
