We hear a lot about the metaverse or metaverses.
That makes me think about microcosms.
microcosm
[ˈmīkrəˌkäzəm]
NOUN
-
a community, place, or situation regarded as encapsulating in miniature the characteristic qualities or features of something much larger.
Everything is a microcosm now. Everyone is in his/her lil world(s).
Mainstream, culturally, isn’t really a thing anymore.
That’s a big shift.
