To mark the 50th anniversary of the laser, BBC Radio 4 are broadcasting a programme with this (ironic) title.
It will be on BBC Radio 4 at 9pm on Wednesday 2 June. That time is British Summer Time (GMT+1hr)
For those outside the UK, you can hear it live through the BBC website www.bbc.co.uk -- either follow the links from the front page (look for "Radio 4") or more directly to http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/ and click on the "Listen Live" button near the top.
If you miss it live, it will remain on the BBC site for 7 days. Go to the programme listings for 't' (it will be listed under 't' for 'The' rather than 'd' for 'Death') at http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/programmes/a-z/by/t and click on the title in that list. That will take you to the programme page where there is a link to the iPlayer.
I was interviewed on the subject of holograms but the producer told me he wished they had had two programmes to fit all the material in, so I may well end up on the cutting-room floor (or whatever the digital audio equivalent is). I know they talked to Sean Johnston too.
