notes on the pacsun avant garde

Fiction? That's what I do already. My characters are a number of crazy hypotheses which maltreat reality in various ways and which I kill off at the end when they have done their work. The only way to treat ideas: murder (they kill concepts, don't they?) — but the crime has to be perfect.

This is all imaginary, of course. Any resemblance to real beings is purely accidental.
