I also try to think of it like this. Lets say we have a cube. What makes up this cube? Wood, Paint, Dirt, Greese, etc, etc, etc. Now you have to create layers of these molecules. So, one layer is of the wood, one of the paint etc. . .
Then you would have to 'flatten' each molecule to be one molecule flat, by however many are long, only two dimensions. Then move them through your space medium, and have them gather into a sespool on the other side. Before doing this, you need to assign a value to each molecule, and then find its chemical bond, to reapply it to the correct bond afterwords. As well, you will bee to have a 3d reference object with all the molecule points, and locations to assist the computer to rebuild the object.
Pretty crazy huh? Thats just kids stuff. . .
Think about it like there was 11 dimensions. See, we only know of 3 to 5 dimensions, depending on who's talking. Imagine if there were 11 or 12 dimensions. Then we might possibly be able to equate a problem that could solve the issue with placing all molecules back in their original location, provided we had the right compound bond that co exsisted between the original objects molecules.
mmmmmm yea, someday.
