Awareness everywhere

Could it be that "spooky action at a distance" in quantum physics hints at the fact that space-time may be an illusion of some sort? By illusion I mean a deceptive appearance that obscures the underlying truth.

In that way, if the "substance" of awareness is already present in all locations, then instantaneous "travel" to any location ought to be possible by "simply" shifting the personal focal point of awareness of an observer, and intergalactic travel might turn up to be trivial - assuming that the extension of awareness indeed covers the full universe and way beyond.

Another interesting challenge lies in figuring out how the individuality of observers arises in the first place - if that is actually what's happening or if it turns out to be an illusion in itself.
