- TheCapeGreek 6y agoPanpsychism is the term. For usage in popular fiction & fun reading, take a deep dive into the lore of The Elder Scrolls, especially Morrowind-era content. In short, the universe is dreamed up by The Dreamer, and thus by definition is made of consciousness. Interesting consequences ensue as a result, especially for the few bits of consciousness (people) that become "lucid" within the dream. This was all inspired of course by some parts of Hinduism if I remember correctly.
