Introduction • Knowledge Nugget •

Hologram projectors at your service!

While it sounds spooky in the spirit of Halloween, this is going to be the reality in your lifetime. Yes, it’s coming and much more.

With visual tech having evolved from huge box sets to high-definition flat screens, 4K, ultra HD and even credit card-thin, flexible televisions, it looks like we may soon get rid of screens altogether and use holograms instead. This sounds like science fiction but the reality of it is actually just around the corner. Scan and read more...

Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson & Tupac Shakur have already been brought back to Holographic life!

Not a big deal!

We can get the dinosaurs back to life!

Build your own Dream Catchers

What is a Dreamcatcher?

Native Americans believe that the night air is filled with dreams, both good and bad. When hung above the bed in a place where the morning sunlight can hit it, the dream catcher attracts and catches all sorts of dreams and thoughts into its webs. Good dreams pass through and gently slide down the feathers to comfort the sleeper below. Bad dreams, however, are caught up in its protective net and destroyed, burned up in the light of day.

I’d be scared if I found something like this hanging on a tree but in my room, it’ll be a piece of art.
