Along with philosphers' reduction of all objective reality to a shadow-world of perceptions, scientists have become aware of the alarming limitations of man's senses.
The Thing we acknowledge to be the material world is merely compromised of perception.....Matter does not have a self governing existence by itself...This creation must be continuous.....This may be likened to a television on which the picture is displayed as long as the signal continues to be broadcast.
To understand why Bohm makes this startling assertion, one must first understand a little about holograms. A hologram is a three- dimensional photograph made with the aid of a laser, and the fractals that all is made of in the holographic illusion only..
To make a hologram, the object to be photographed is first bathed in the light of a laser beam. Then a second laser beam is bounced off the reflected light of the first and the resulting interference pattern (the area where the two laser beams commingle) is captured on film.
When the film is developed, it looks like a meaningless swirl of light and dark lines. But as soon as the developed film is illuminated by another laser beam, a three-dimensional image of the original object appears.
The three-dimensionality of such images is not the only remarkable characteristic of holograms. If a hologram of a rose is cut in half and then illuminated by a laser, each half will still be found to contain the entire image of the rose.
Indeed, even if the halves are divided again, each snippet of film will always be found to contain a smaller but intact version of the original image. Unlike normal photographs, every part of a hologram contains all the information possessed by the whole.
The "whole in every part" nature of a hologram provides us with an entirely new way of understanding organization and order.
And because 3D can be manipulated by them (for example you spoke of something that was "almost" there. I do understand this. Its not another dimensional experience, but its not solid in our dimension (or at least in humanities perception, for we dont see reality and our minds are programmed to see only a small amount of what is here. This is part of the matrix!
I call this phasing. Its akin to a pocket of something extra like a plane or sub dimension within ours, and they probably set up a laboratory, room just offset from your own rooms and use your house at will.

Yes. We could all be free were it not for this pesky burden of existing in the world. What a ball and chain reality is, eh?
Anyway, OP, great videos. I ate 'em up.

What is matter? The only proof we have that it exists is because our five senses suggest its reality, yet are we being deceived? Do we have any proof that anything exists outside of our perceptions of the matter?
In reality, the only thing that we know for certain exists at all is the energy waves, that are translated into images, sounds, touch, smell and taste by different parts of the brain, the only images we see are projected on a small screen at the back of our minds. Even our brain existing is a perception as well, which leads us even further down the rabbit hole to ask, who is perceiving this world, and is it merely illusionary?
So any conscious beings living near Betelgeuse would be experiencing an entirely different plane/channel/dimension of space/time than we would
