Classification of holograms and types of hologram used in holographic art

 

Holography is a modern imaging technique which was created by the research and applications of numerous physicists, chemists, mathematicians and engineers, and which is still being continue to develop. With this technique, recording and storage of the light and sound and reconstruction of them at the desired time and space is intended. Mainly used in scientific and technological research and applications, holography, also began to be used increasingly in the field of art in many countries, by the time many artists had discovered the artistic potential of this technique in the 1960s. Holography is a technique that include many hologram types. Some of these types could be used in the holographic art, however each hologram type is not appropriate for artistic use. In order to understand which of them could be used in art, firstly classification of this technique as well as the types should be known. In this study, holograms are classified, and hologram types used in the holographic art,and holographic art terms are examined.
