Yet the drive for the real, as Zizek suggests, always culminates in its opposite:
theatrical spectacle. Why? Because the real is only able to be sustained if we
fictionalize it.[2] To look for the real, then, is not to look for it directly: it
is to look to our fictions, discerning how realit y is "transfunctionalized"
through them.
