The closest analogy I have so far in my mind that is probably very wrong and not very analogous is: we are bytes in random access memory. We stay in ram until we sleep and awake when we’re booted up. Depending on our some mathematical instructions we might be in one configuration or another. We probably see the reality we’re told to see. My guess is that even consciousness is part of something bigger (think ram as part of a system consisting of other parts).

But what’s outside that system?
