8‑K holographic gigs feel like a neon fireworks show—super flashy, great for a one‑night splash, but the tech still feels a bit staged. Pixel art was the first step, a pixelated language that taught us how to build worlds one block at a time. VR took that into a full‑body experience, letting us walk inside the art, feel the beat. Holograms bring that “real‑world” pop but they’re still surface‑level, glued to a venue and often just a visual trick. If we want a real leap, we need to fuse holograms with interactive VR, where the light not only looks but feels. Until then, it’s hype with high resolution, but the next big jump is still deep, immersive, and totally immersive.
