Finance fiction
/ˈfaɪəns ˈfɪkʃən/ (n.)
(As per the phonetics, pronounced “fience fiction”)
Finance fiction, or “fi-fi”, is a post-post-modern literary genre combining elements of science fiction, fantasy, history, legal drafting, management theory and jurisprudence to into a single amorphous, disintegrating, gonzo whole. It is reflexive, illogical, self-refuting, enlightened, continental, rational, impossible, anarchic, auto-erotic world-building and self-destructive. The first universally recognised example of fi-fi was Hunter Barkley’s 2022 opus the The ISDA Protocol.
