simulacra and simulation
"Simulacra and Simulation" refers to a concept proposed by the philosopher Jean Baudrillard, which suggests that in contemporary society, replicas or copies have been substituted for the reality they are meant to represent. It argues that these simulated versions of reality are now widely accepted as the genuine, leading to a blurring of the boundary between what is real and what is presented as real.
