This makes sense, but seems to be an answer to a different question about the curvature of spacetime. How does it relate to the universe being a hologram?

- sandworm101 10y agoIt doesnt. The hologram is a metaphore. Once upon a time our 3/4 dimension world was encoded upon a world with fewer dimensions LIKE a 2d hologram contains the info of a 3d image. This world didnt last very long. Under our concept of time it happened long ago, but we can see evidence of it smeared across the sky in the cosmic microwave background. (A 2d image that should look the same no matter where you stand in our 3d space.)
- anigbrowl 10y agoOnly indirectly (I did warn you I was gonna bullshit a bit). One obvious way would be in a spherical projection onto a flat surface, but that makes it harder to explain the basis of the curvature first. I apologize for being so vague; I'm trying to develop something more solid related to this idea, but I'm at that in-between stage of not being ready to properly articulate it yet.
