In ecology there is the 'hyperdimensional niche' that every species of plant and animal inhabits - ultimately I suppose every individual of those species. It refers to the exact way the creature fits into its environment - what it likes eating, what size food it can fit in its mouth, what temperatures it can live with, etc etc. And I suppose we could think about our own realities the same way - there are all these parameters (hence 'hyperdimensional' - not just two dimensions like you get on a piece of graph paper) and we all take up space within them in a unique way.. not just physical parameters but mental ideas as well... hmm...
