Hyperdimensional Engineering

The practice of designing and constructing systems that operate in hyperdimensional realms, where the normal constraints of physics, materials, and reality don't apply. Hyperdimensional engineers don't build structures—they build "existence configurations," patterns that manifest across infinite dimensions, taking forms that no 3D being could comprehend. The challenge is that hyperdimensional engineering has no design principles (they don't apply), no materials (they don't exist), and no quality control (failure is meaningless when everything exists simultaneously). Despite these minor obstacles, hyperdimensional engineering has produced some remarkable "structures"—none of which we can perceive, but all of which are technically perfect, which is either the greatest achievement in engineering history or the biggest nothing-burger ever constructed.

Hyperdimensional Engineering Example: "She was a hyperdimensional engineer who designed a bridge across infinite dimensions. The bridge existed in all possible configurations simultaneously—built, not built, half-built, made of stone, made of light, made of pure mathematics. It was the most ambitious engineering project in history, and also completely useless, since no one could perceive it, access it, or even prove it existed. She considered it her finest work."
