theory-fiction 

A tenet of Nick Land's speculative realism in which formalism and representation become continuous with respect to each other, obviating the object between them.

Constructivistic surrealism.

The collapse of the signifier/sign/signed triangle in semiotic theory into a duality of signifier and signed.

Preliminarily schematized in computer science by replacing object-oriented programming with attribute-oriented programming (synthetic programming); and ultimately reference-oriented programming.
Theory-fiction eliminates the object itself by collapsing the triangle of semiotic representationalism into a duality.

One theory to explain the occurrence of a hole in the crotch of a mans jeans. Over time the material is eroded by the constant friction of the swinging ball bag.
Person 1: 'Dude, your nuts are hanging out of that hole in your jeans'.....

Person 2: 'Yeah sorry man, ball bag friction theory'
