I thought of the same metaphor years ago, calling reality an interface, just like the interface of a computer. Time & space is like the desktop, objects are like the icons & physics is like the rules governing the interaction between the icons & desktop. What's powering the interface of our reality? The code of consciousness. It's like a quantum supercomputer, taking every possible position simultaneously. It's quite surreal to hear the exact analogy used by someone else years later. I also see dreams like metaphors for how the illusion of life could be created. We each dream, create our own universes with their own rules of physics somehow, the characters within your dream all think they are separate, yet they stem from one mind. Your subconscious creates situations & fractals of itself to learn about itself & grow in a sort of sandbox environment. Imagine a mind much more powerful than ours. Instead of running 8-18 characters at once in a dream, it can run 8-800 trillion characters at once. It would also mean the entire dream world is conscious in that it is composed of thought, albeit at different levels of consciousness depending on their level of awareness of being. A person character in the dream is more conscious than a rock, yet at a certain level of growth, which appears to be one of the fundamental guiding principles, the character person realises they are an avatar, an interface for the source mind, expressing itself through you. At which point they could simultaneously have an existential crisis, a sense of solitude as not many others in their virtual world understands them, a sense of awe in the beauty of the illusion & a sense of comfort in the unknown. We are the universe experiencing itself in order to grow & learn from experience. It is likely there are many parallel universes & forms of sentience in other dimensions. it would mean the separation is all an illusion. That everyone is truly interconnected on a conscious level.
