Historic Holograms Amplify Holocaust Survivors' Testimonies
The Creators Project: Having a one on one conversation with someone remains one of the most immersive experiences a human being can share, and when watching people speak to Holocaust survivor Pinchas Gutter, you feel that intensity.
Gutter, who was born in Lodz, Poland in 1932, wears a dark vest buttoned up over a white dress shirt. Sitting on a chair, with hands resting on knees, he stares straight ahead while an audience asks questions about his life before, during and after the Holocaust.

This is amazing. It is a great way to use technology to preserve history. The Holocaust was such a tragic event that has had an impact on so many lives and so many other events in history. The survivor’s stories are the best way to learn about the horrors that went on in these concentration camps, death camps, and ghettos at the time. The sad truth is that there were not many survivors and ad time passed awe are losing more and more survivors simply do to old age. When these survivors die a portion of their story is lost because part of the telling of a story is in the facial expression and inflection of the teller. But with this new way of holographical recording and saving these stories for other to hear it is preserving the firsthand account of these survivors. This is such an important thing to do. We cannot loose such a big part of history, and with this method of preservation we can stop that from happening.
