These two universes, of which the former is threshold to the latter, have no connecting points, the extreme cases represented by distorting mirrors being in fact ‘catastrophe points’. There comes a time when one has to make up one’s mind and choose which side one is on. The catop-tric universe is a reality which can give the impression of virtuality, whereas the semiosic universe is a virtuality which can give the impres-sion of reality.
