Obscura Digital prepares you for a holographic age

The man that you see on the stage in the photo above is a magician. Actually, he’s probably some representative for a company called Obscura Digital, but what he is doing is pure magic.

His little performance involves waving his hands, and images of photos appear before him. The pictures also move with a little motion-controlled telekinesis. The images are holograms, and I would like to think that one day we will all browse through our photos in the same way.

It kind of works like the Microsoft Surface, except that there is no Surface. So what would you call it, the Air? Be sure to see the video of this new technology in action after the jump, because this guy also does this weird trick of drawing with light that you will also need to see to believe.
