planeedid

Planeedid is a fictional term used in speculative fiction and design discourse to describe a hypothetical method for encoding perceptual data onto spatial planes. In this concept, memories or sensory experiences are mapped to layered two-dimensional planes that can be accessed and recombined by a reader or device to reconstruct the original experience as an immersive projection. The approach blends ideas from eidetic memory and planar geometry, hence the name.

In narratives and media, planeedid is employed to explore themes of memory privacy, consent, and identity, as well as the social consequences of shared experiences. It serves as a plot device for memory borrowing, memory theft, or the creation of collective memory repositories, and it can be contrasted with linear memory storage or with non-spatial digital archives.

Origins and reception: the term is said to have emerged in speculative design and literary circles in the 22nd century and has since appeared across novels, games, and essays as a convenient shorthand for spatially organized memory storage. Its usage is often aimed at examining how memory technologies might affect autonomy, culture, and interpersonal trust.

Etymology and notes: planeedid combines plane, a geometric concept, with eidetic, relating to vivid memory. The concept remains fictional and has no claim to real-world scientific validation or implementation.
