    1. two forms of media I see a lot of are: - discussions of big nerd media, focused around canon & representation & absolutes - tiktoks & memes which are all about evoking a vibe, a mood, juxtaposition, fragmentary worldbuilding, not even staking a claim on fiction

    against which it's kind of interesting to think about David Lynch, who has been around since before the turn to puzzlebox narrative, and is now in vogue again

      I place those two trends in opposition to each other, but also works can embody both of them at the same time : Petscop, SCP, Blaseball

        I guess the trend is to start as evocative fragments, and then build up lore around it. the hard part is resisting continuity between the fragments.
