# Overlapping realities Sci-fi loves wormholes and alternate realities. But there are already alternate and overlapping realities in our minds. Each individual experiences the world _uniquely_. Our senses capture different information. Our brains filter different information. Our brains memorize different information. Our brains recall different information at different times. As it was mentioned in Altered Carbon (Season 2), [[Reality is just an agreed upon illusion]]. We can try to reconcile those _overlapping realities_ through communication, but there's no way to superimpose those perfectly, no matter what. We are all different, and we'll stay that way. Our reality is unique, even if there is an overlap with the reality of other people. ## Related - [[DeveloPassion's Newsletter 060 - Overlapping realities]]
