Shared reality refers to the collective agreement among participants about what is objectively occurring in a given moment—the baseline facts and perceptions that a group assumes they're experiencing together.
In the Psycheverse
Psyche uses moments of fractured shared reality—like the smoke alarm incident—as a lens for exploring consciousness, perception, and the malleability of consensus. These episodes highlight how quickly group reality can splinter and become contested, raising questions about whose perception counts and whether objective truth exists when witnesses disagree.
