Haven't gotten around to this bad boy, but he derives a bunch from Baudrillad here and I assume everywhere else, as this seems to be aesthetically drawn from that continental grab-bag and some say Simulacra was the high water mark for semiotics (please don't ask me to elaborate, cause I can't).

Don't read any of that, though, read this.
