Consciousness. Reality(ies) doesn’t actually exists out there¹. They are the construct that you form and manipulate inside your head. So, when you choose, or are compelled by senses, to manipulate a different set of constructs, then you’ve changed realities. This is also why we say that different individuals and groups of individuals live different subjective and social realities.
1: We have reasons to infer and believe that it actually does but ontologically speaking, it might as well don’t.

Isn’t this attention? Essentially you give something ‘life’ by paying attention to it (I’m rusty but I think that’s strictly a relative phenomenon, of course it doesn’t live, etc. I think this is something in philosophy?)

“it’s an attention” thing sounds right to me too. Shift of attention = shift of reality. In the small as well as the large.
