Based on existing forms and formats of graphic designed ephemera, a New Zealand bookstore (Whitcoulls) sign is transformed into the words \u201cFalling into Fiction\u201d and a Penguin Classics book is altered to mirror the questions the protagonist has. A museum poster, using the background of a piece corrugated cardboard, purports to show the increasingly jaded protagonist \u201cTreasures of the Unknown and Uncharted\u201d. A page from a computer manual helpfully delineates \u201cmethods\u201d of making paintings.\n<\/p>\n

\nAnd finally, in a form of mirroring (such as the play within a play or a story within a story), the person goes to the theatre, only to find \u201cherself\u201d as the character. Her companion never shows up.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
