Naming a Contingent Universe for a SciFi Novel

 Suggestions for naming a field of reality device used in a science fiction novel were solicited at a site. The paradigm was described as a 'Shroud World' were reality was projected and mirrored on a membrane presumably of fewer than four dimensions. I wrote this;

Reality is something like that...2-dimensional quanta at the speed of light-massless particles are slowed in the Higgs Field and pick up a third dimension. The third dimension is slower or different than the other two and with three dimensions the appearance of mass can seem to exist to contingent beings that arise within the field. So contingent universes-emergent universes can conditionally exist with qualities that just phenomenally exist. In a way that is a paradigm for relativity somewhat different than those of standard cosmology. Perhaps a Shroud of Occurrence or Shroud of Temporality would work, or a Fliggs Field, Shrouds Field , Field of Dreams and Plato's Field are names that could refer to such a place.

There are physics theories about this Universe existing on the surface event horizon of a black hole in a Universe with more than four dimensions. Physicists sometimes describes cubes and hypercubes with more dimensions than three. "In geometry, a hypercube is an n-dimensional analogue of a square (n = 2) and a cube (n = 3). " (wikipedia)
