Oedipa’s Planetarium

[J K Van Nort]

Oedipa continues with Driblette's planetarium metaphor that he is creating universes, but she seeks to project a world that Pierce Inverarity left behind. Why a planetarium and not a movie to define a life? Did Pierce’s life have a “pulsing, stelliferous Meaning” that could only be projected as a universe? 

We know why Driblette makes the comparison, but that doesn’t make sense with Oedipa unless she is just enamored of the idea.

In solidarity,

James
