Welcome to my web page!  I hope you will spend some time here and enjoy (or at least find interesting) some of what you read and see in these pages.  

My profession takes me all over the world. I love to experience and learn of cultures, present and past and I am blessed with many dear friends in wonderful and exotic places who enhance this process.  Here you can read about them and their places and cultures. 

Writing enhances and even changes my experience of travel as well as life, itself, and ultimately my most reliable decision making process is to choose only after asking, “Which choice would be most interesting to read about?”.

A passion for art since childhood shaped my right-brained approach to science and life.  As a physicist my work involves the science of light, images, and holography, some of which are represented in these pages.  Included are chapters that describe encounters, experiences and critiques of artists, scientists, and their creations.  Eventually, this will get me into trouble, especially the critiques.

An separate web page
 My Art  shows off my own art works (you cannot beat the price) and a holography gallery shows off one of the best private hologram collections in America-my own.

Eventually I plan to add a general store where anyone who is so inclined can purchase holograms and works of art.  Would you like to have a “Trolinger” in your collection?  I think of web sites like this one as a 21st century art form, and some will live for centuries.  And like some of the best of art forms, the web is free for everyone to enjoy
