In the Psycheverse

Psyche treats identity construction as a deliberate ritual practice—examining how the self is strategically assembled through image, performance, and belief systems. He investigates both personal identity work and the meta-level of how streamers, panelists, and community figures construct their personas, positioning identity as a nexus of power, perception, and creative agency rather than something fixed or given.
