Let me have a go with your question. Imaging, in an audio sense, is to be a be able to pick out where a particular instrument or performer is on a given, illusionary sound stage. Usually with the understanding that you are acting as an observer with the "stage" in front of you much like you would experience at an actual venue.
Audio holography is a sense that this music is "surrounding you" and not coming from in front of you as if there are no speakers.
Sounds are still "imaging" but its as if you are in the middle of a band instead of as a spectator.
It’s an uncanny and erie effect and has to do with phase distortion and kind of neat and addicting.
Well, that’s my interpretation anyway form my experience.
Again in my experience, you have a better shot of achieving this with speakers at least 3 ft away from a rear wall and you are also not sitting with a wall at close proximity, directly behind you.
Equipment and placement can certainly all lend to this as well as phase shifted recordings. A lot of Madonna albums come to mind such as in reference to "shifted" recording.
Dire Straits with "Money for Nothing’ has a drum riff that appears to move all around you as well.
There are a bunch more but just giving you a sense of the idea.
