Perspektri

Perspektri is a fictional concept used in speculative fiction and philosophical discourse to explore how reality is constructed by multiple observers. The term describes a framework in which events are presented from several distinct vantage points, revealing how bias, interpretation, and context shape what is known.

In practice, Perspektri appears in novels, graphic novels, and interactive media as a narrative mechanism that foregrounds epistemic gaps. Works employing Perspektri may present parallel timelines, overlapping scenes, or modular chapters—each from a different character, sensorium, or cultural background. Some creators introduce a Perspektri Lens, a fictional device or protocol that facilitates the exchange and comparison of perspectives while preserving individual voice.

The approach invites readers to compare accounts and form their own synthesis, or to confront unresolved ambiguity about what actually transpired.

Scholars and critics describe Perspektri as a useful tool for examining epistemology, ethics, and narrative reliability, while noting that overuse or clumsy implementation can confuse audiences. Related ideas include perspectivism, multi-narrator technique, and unreliable narration.
