  I would submit David Bowie as a counter example.

    Are we sure he would describe himself as either consistently “stable” throughout his experiences? Alternately, he might also protest to feeling as though his existence and the context around it might be well described as a sort of experimental setting, albeit not contained within a traditional laboratory setting.

    Any world famous musician who not only survives their 30s but is relatively alive and kicking for decades later I would consider to pass the first condition, considering the track record for individuals experiencing that volume of fanatic obsession at young ages.

      You know… Maybe I interpreted the question wrong. I think I added the HYPER modifier to “gender”, rather than “real”. In my interpretation his gender sort of rotates in and out of 3d space like a hypercube. Now that I’ve noticed that the modifier was actually on “real”, I’m trying to figure out if that changes my answer. Because, while I may not know exactly what gender Bowie was going for, I know that his instantiation of it was far more REAL than most people manage to achieve.

        Hyperreal refers to a fake tthing that feels more substantial than the real thing
