eruthros: Delenn from Babylon 5 with a startled expression and the text "omg!" (Default)
Speaking of Foucault (as I'm sure we all were), I've had a sudden media revelation. I think you could do fabulous, fabulous things with a Foucault-The Matrix deal. The world is not real; nothing is real but the discourses that create the world. Humans are creatures with no inherent nature, deluded into thinking the world is real and limited by their concept of "human nature." Keanu Reeves would be the genius -- okay, I acknowledge that there's a problem there. Keanu Reeves would play the genius who, by virtue of his unique cunning insight, could see through the unreal world to the real discourses.

Then, of course, he could use these discourses to do really cool backflips. And it would turn out that we're all living in pods.
