tru

everything is storytelling

>>8938170

this is... advanced ideology

"in the beginning there was"

^

infinite universe theory is just another way of saying infinite stories. we probably each live in a unique universe, colliding with those of others

and yet some stories are more..something something

A wild anon appears in your story and gives you recommendations of art that you should consume because you're actually totally right:

-Luigi Pirandello's "6 Characters In Search of an Author" (Play)

-Samuel Beckett's "Waiting for Godot" (Play)

-Satoshi Kon's "Paranoia Agent" (Anime)

-John (I think?) Fowles' "The Magus" (Novel)

-Tom Stoppard's "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead" (Play/Movie) & "Arcadia" (Play)

-(Don't know how to attribute authorship) The Stanley Parable (Video Game, available on Steam - play through to the "Art Ending" for best results (srsly))

-Gaiman's "The Sandman" (Graphic Novel (10 Trade Paperbacks in original run; he did a new one a few years ago but I haven't kept up with it and so can't recommend it))

-Ted Chiang's "The Story of You" (Short Story) & Arrival (Film Adaptation, still in theatres)

-Plato's "Parmenides" (Socratic Dialogue) and "Allegory of the Cave" (from The Republic)

-Everything around you, as the universe was written for you, and you are also its author, and you have been dropping clues throughout your entire life to remind you of this fact that you have forgotten, and the point of your death will be the moment you have complete recollection of how all of it connects in an infinitely complex way, the sheer beauty, elegance, and power of which will destroy you in the best possible way, and I am also part of that story and here to tell you this so that we can share in the infinity of that moment, which is this moment.

-They Might Be Giants' "A Self Called Nowhere" (Song, from the "John Henry" album)

You perceive, now, that these things are all impossible, except in a dream. You perceive that they are pure and puerile insanities, the silly creations of an imagination that is not conscious of its freaks---in a word, that they are a dream, and you the maker of it. The dream-marks are all present---you should have recognized them earlier.....
It is true, that which I have revealed to you: there is no God, no universe, no human race, no earthly life, no heaven, no hell. It is all a Dream, a grotesque and foolish dream. Nothing exists but You. And You are but a Thought---a vagrant Thought, a useless Thought, a homeless Thought, wandering forlorn among the empty eternities!

...And here I thought that never the Twain I'd meet... yet Mark your words; a mysterious stranger exists.

This but unironically.

Minus the equal bullshit obvs. All stories are created -Unique-.
