Noosphere

Location Summary

The Noosphere is the sphere of human thought and is a set of all human ideas, existing to house everything that humans could ever or will ever think of in their lifetimes. It's the home of many memetic anomalies in SCP Foundation, with many of them seeking to affect the minds of humanity and thus effect the physical world that extends from The Noosphere. Some SCP Tales portray it as alternate plane of existence whilst others treat it as fully beyond the multiverse

The ideas in The Noosphere are also likened to platonic archetypes, playing a role in shaping the physical world that it's unbound by and giving shape to the multiverse. The Noosphere is a part of every single SCP canon and thus it's existence is a vital part of reality

Location Information

Tier: 1-A β

Name: Noosphere (also referred to as "The World of Forms", "Psychosphere" and many other titles)

Verse: SCP Foundation

Type: Platonic World (A realm comprised of purely ideas and abstractions, which contribute to the formulation of the lower and physical world)

Environment: The atmosphere and general nature of The Noosphere is beyond the understanding of human cognition and thus can't be defined like conventional environments

Composition: Human Thoughts & Ideals (The Noosphere comprised of purely ideas and abstractions, which contribute to the formulation of the lower and physical world)

Size: Beyond-Dimensional Class (Exists beyond the physical world and it's conceptions, existing an archetypal world that contains platonic ideas)

Dimensionality: Beyond-Dimensional (The Noosphere houses all platonic ideas that formulate and contribute to the existence of the physical world, which includes all the physical spatial dimensions that define every iteration of reality and even an infinity of smaller scale narratives of such as the Kaktusverse. These contradictory and illogical narratives contribute to the larger and infinitely greater pataphysical model that limited these narratives to single canons, including the information that defines said part of reality. Narratives are akin to higher layers of existence and infinitely transcend the last akin to a stack where each higher layer is infinitely greater than the previous and given that The Noosphere contains the platonic forms of aleph numbers, this would suggest that The Noosphere contains an infinite amount of narrative layers, with even basic narratives transcending the physical world and it's dimensions)

Special Abilities: Abstract Existence (The Noosphere is the set of thoughts that all humanity can have), Transduality (Type 3; Correlated to being Platonic Forms, with concepts of The Noosphere contributing to the formulation of reality. This means that The Noosphere transcends every and any duality system that is defined within the physical world, including elements that are transdualistic in nature themselves), Acausality (Paracausality; It's nature is transcendental of the physical world and is the reason for time's existence, including the arbitrary amount of higher dimensions of time that are extensions of it), Conceptual Manipulation (The existence of The Noosphere is one that houses the abstract concepts that define the physical world), Mind Manipulation, Memory Manipulation, Dream Manipulation, Perception Manipulation (Contains and acts as the set of all human thoughts, minds, dreams and perceptions on reality), Large Size (Type 11; Exists beyond the conceptions of space and time), Time Manipulation, Causality Manipulation (Acts as the dimension of time, including allowing causality to exist by materializing each "step" of physical reality), Higher-Dimensional Manipulation (Contains the ideatic entities from across a wide array of higher dimensions, including ones separate and unique from physical dimensions), Data Manipulation, Information Manipulation (Contains and defines the information make-up that defines the physical world), Law Manipulation, Physics Manipulation (Can manipulate the laws of reality to make even the most anomalous events happening against all odds), Mathematics Manipulation (Contains at least a few mathematical principles)

Passive Nature: Conceptual Manipulation (Beings who are introduced to The Noosphere are turned into abstract forms)

Notable Inhabitants:

• Memes: The Noosphere is the home of memetic entities
• Memeplexes: These are more complex memetic structures, existing as conglomerates of memes put together. Usually beings of this nature are deific entities worshipped by humanity
• Disembodied Consciousnesses: Beings that lack a physical body and inhabit the Noosphere, which is not limited to organic beings trapped within, A.I beings that can only interact with the physical world through digital interfaces or a multitude of other unique entities
• Extranoospheric Entities: Entities who exist outside The Noosphere but can intersect with it partially to affect it in a wide array of ways

Notable Sections:

• The Cybersphere: An overlapping area of The Noosphere where the set of all information stored digitally, potentially existing partially out of the Noosphere in the scenario that an artificial intelligence gain more brainpower that exceeds humans

Extra Info: This page is centered around the baseline Noosphere part of the Ike model of the SCP Foundation reality, which exists beyond and or around every universe within SCP Foundation's vast multiverse. The Noosphere has been changed in many storylines but these would require different profiles than this one, as this is the default Noosphere that is present in most stories
