In this way, fictioning might be understood as a kind of device, something akin to an anamorphosis. On the one hand – at an extreme – it can appear as a rupture in consensual reality. It does not quite fit our usual world or dominant regimes of representation. And yet, on the other hand – when the correct stance or posture towards it is assumed – it ‘reveals’ another world that, we might say, is occluded by this one (there are resonances here with Deleuze’s comments on the diagram that can reveal another world of hitherto invisible forces). This is not the promise of another world – not exactly a utopia – but its presence, however minimally, within this one.Â
