Do the Scriptures support the 'Simulated Universe' idea?

If you were to Google "simulated universe" you'll find that major science institutions are starting to hypothesize that the universe is 'very possibly' a 'simulated environment' at the lowest level - where this simulated (_created_) environment supports all needed elements to facilitate true organic existence (they are not claiming that *we* are simulated). One article even went as far as referencing 'the being(s) behind the simulation' (_Creators_)
Although these hypotheses vary, I've seen a few different schools that have studied the possibility (such as University of Washington) and are coming to the conclusion that it can even be simulated on a small scale within the near future.
My question is whether the Scriptures support such an idea? I've never studied the Word from this angle so I can't say either way.
Just to be clear, I know that we and even the universe are not digital simulations - but is there any way that the universe could have not just formed by God's will, but also that the formation is bound *through* God's constant will?
