David Lynch=Thomas Pynchon

[j...@ceres.physics.uiowa.edu]

Here is my theory, (which is mine, ahh-hmm).

David Lynch is really Thomas Pynchon. They both have been
linked to the Pacific Northwest (Seattle) and seem to have the same
interests in conspiracies and popular culture. My theory is that
Pynchon got tired of doing purely literary work and wanted to do
something visual. Now since film-making is a collaborative art and
he wanted to keep his Pynchon anonymity, he just developed the
Lynch character (who would fit nicely in a Pynchon novel). Maybe
this is all performance art. Now I'm sure someone can prove me
wrong in a zillion ways, but just think about it ...

I'm sorry... That's just TOO weird to be wrong. Question is, how does
this all fit in with Buckaroo Banzai? Are we going to see an
appearance of Yoyodyne Propultion Industries in Twin Peaks?

The concurrence between Twin Peaks and Thomas Pynchon are pretty high (even
down to the initials!).

I had already suggested in e-mail to a reader of the group some of the
similarities between Twin Peaks and TP recent VineLand. Both rather weird
both involving indian superstions and both set in s very similar environment
(norther CA and central/easter WA, surrounded by trees).

I wouldn't go as far as suggesteing DL = TP, but he certainly reads the same
sort of books!
