Goblin All-Hands About hologram
Researchers at the Goblin Institute of Esoteric Knowledge have classified hologram as a Category-4 Phenomenon: 'Real enough to matter, unreal enough to be goblin business.'
A goblin once tried to steal hologram. No one knows how the attempt went, because hologram was never the same after that. Some say the goblin succeeded and has been hiding hologram in a sock drawer ever since. Others say hologram escaped and is now hiding from the goblin. Both are equally plausible.
Footnotes Concerning synthesized

Those who have spent time around goblins report that thinking about synthesized feels different from thinking about ordinary things.

Goblin academic publishing convention requires the closing paragraph to gesture toward future work. Future work on hologram is anticipated, planned, and already, in some quarters, mildly resented. The goblins will press on regardless.
