The simulacrum is never what hides the truth - it is truth that hides the fact that there is none. The simulacrum is true. - Ecclesiastes
Coextensivity of the real and its concept is imaginary
The real is produced from miniaturized cells, matrices, and memory banks, models of control - and it can be reproduced an indefinite number of times from these. It no longer needs to be rational, because it no longer measures itself against either an ideal or negative instance. It is no longer anything but operational.
Interpretation-- The system is the point from which we produce 'reality', and as long as the system is functional, what happens in reality does not matter, except for purposes of orientation.
