I feel strongly that Massive Dynamics, at least from the top down, is  
a representative of this other reality.

Some spoilers below for anyone who hasn't yet seen the show...

Well it's a bit early to make this leap, but since the head lady of  
Massive Dynamics has an ultra high-tech "cyber"-arm,  and it was  
"acting up" this last episode, perhaps that's how the show is handling  
disconnection, and she may perhaps be part of this other reality.  
Disconnection through a sort-of slow entropy effect seems kind of  
interesting.
