An annoying thing about picking words to use for things is that major uses that came before are often inconsistent. For example, the word "atemporality" means interesting but slightly different things in the ways mean it, versus the way Ursula Le Guin used it

In the earlier Le Guin sense (as in Dispossessed or Left Hand of Darkness), it has a connotation of the timeless cyclicality of domestic temporal "indoors". In the cyberpunk sense it has connotations of anomic temporal "outdoors" chaos.

Philip K. Dick sense of it (though I'm not sure he ever actually used the word) is somewhere in between. A sort of hallucinatory time zone between actual and derealized experiences.
