Abstract
Explore the intricate relationship between reality and fiction in a thought-provoking examination of how we perceive and interact with fictional forms. Delve into the fascinating complexities of human experience through cinema, theater, and video games, and witness how they reflect and imitate our own reality. Understand the sociological underpinnings as illustrated by the American sociologist of everyday life Erving Goffman and embodied in the Suspicious Owl animated series. This exploration unravels the layers of perception and interpretation, demonstrating how our engagement with fiction influences our understanding of the real world. Whether you’re a fan of literature, film, or simply intrigued by the mechanics of the human mind, this perspective on the interplay between the real and unreal offers a compelling lens through which to view our daily lives. It’s a journey into the essence of our very being, a reflection of how we see ourselves, and a challenge to our assumptions about what is truly real.
