The Unreal World

There is a place not made of atoms but of information. Mathematics, Physics, Economics, Politics, Literature, they all live in this place. All who visit the same place see the same thing, like one would view a lamppost on the same street corner. In this place nothing new is ever created, or ever changes, it is only seen, sometimes for the first time. This place transcends space, for if there are intelligences out amongst the stars they are exploring this same place, though with different minds and different eyes. Like nature this place is neither good nor bad. It is indifferent. As time progresses though, this unreal world will slip into the real with events both wondrous and horrific, discovered by explorers, settled by colonists, and lived in by all who follow.
