A metaphysical framework proposing that reality is composed not of discrete objects or substances, but of overlapping,
interacting fields of potentiality, influence, and absence. Think of it as the universe operating like a massive, cosmic Photoshop file where everything exists on its own layer, and what we perceive as "solid" reality is the composite image of all these translucent layers
interacting. A chair, in this view, isn't just a chair; it's the convergence of the "treeness" of its wood, the "human-design" layer, the "gravity" field pinning it down, and the "observer" layer that grants it the quality of 'chair-ness.' It rejects the binary of existence vs. non-existence, focusing instead on degrees of presence and the "ghostly"
influences of things not fully manifest.
Spectralism (
Philosophy) Example:
"Dude, I'm not saying your ex-girlfriend is literally here, but by Spectralism, the entire vibe of the room is haunted by the spectral layer of her
disappointment. It's as real as the couch, just on a different frequency."
