Why doesn't he want to be photographed?

Sorry to steal your thunder OP, but I am genuinely curious about the meaning behind his anteater quote. Can anyone explain it for me?

Probably because he doesn't want to get recognized

Because he's smart and knows that fame eventually leads to alienation and misery

Would you want to be photographed if you looked like a David Lynch character?

Why?

To get more attention

IIRC, it's fake.

he has completely transcended normal human desires like recognition and fame
do you think someone described as an 'intellectual superman' by his contemporaries wants to become a weekly presence in inane news articles and being gazetted in reddit TILs every day
also his equine mouth

He's an undercover CIA agent

He's a Trump supporter and doesn't want to be harassed in liberal New York.

Last night I had a dream where I was in some undisclosed neighborhood, knocking on random doors, asking old ladies where Pynchon might live.
I haven't even read any of his books for christ's sake!

He knows too much

>>7828065
Because "he" doesn't exist.

Because he hasn't aged
