forum for week of 14 Nov: when we don't want knowledge

What about writing a story, a novel or screenplay for example. You would think of characters in your mind and perhaps even pretend you are them while you are writing your story. You would try to think as they do so to enhance the quality of your story. The aim would be to create something fictional rather then to seek knowledge about the real world. However, I think in a way this could still be considered aiming at knowledge because you are in a sense still creating knowledge and/or seeking knowledge on a subject, just not on a subject that exists in the physical world.
