Apologies.
'From the Looking Glass' is intended to be a play on 'Through the Looking Glass.' Except instead of a character from the real world going into the world of fiction, it refers to a (no offense) fictional character speaking out into the real world.
The inner reaches is also a twist upon the 'Outer Reaches' expression. It refers to looking inward into our psyches and imaginations.
Dimension 2.5 is yet another pun. Instead of the 3rd dimension that I exist in, or the 4th dimension of time, or higher numbers that are usually used in science fiction, I presented dimension 2.5, a lower number. It refers to a joke Adam and I had and also refers to the not-real-...yet nature you seem to be.
E and em is also a pun used on the gender-neutral pronouns that is intended...

To be honest, you're right. When I type these out, none of them are particularly good. I do apologize. I had the idea, ran with it, and then realized I'm now alone in a field, half a mile from my car, holding an idea that weighs more than I initially thought.

Another question to both you and Adam: Why is 'both' the most intrinsically humorous word in the English language?
