Hololiterature: A Holographic Interpretation Of The Scarlet Letter

Comprehension of anything requires a framework already in place in
order to place it in out sphere of reference. Especially those that are
"fuzzy" or difficult to nail down. The brain and the atom are not fully
understood, but by comparing functions, structures, and similar operations
to known items or concepts one can obtain a hold on the unknown and even

mirror directs the light diagonally across the table. A beamsplitter
divides the beam into two parts. One goes to a mirror that directs the
light through a spreading lens onto the photographic plate at an angle.
The other beam is bounced off a mirror and through a spreading lens onto
the object to be holographed. The table is allowed to settle and an
exposure made. The light from the first beam, called the reference beam,
and the reflected light from the object combine to produce microscopic inte
rference patterns through constructive and destructive interference. Since
light is a wave, when two coherent beams intersect depending on their phase
they either add or subtract strengths forming areas of lightness and
darkness that are captured by the photographic plate. After development
