Okay, strap in nerds: it’s about to get philosophical up in here. Mike Rugnetta of PBS Idea Channel wants you to know that reality is a construct and fictional objects have properties, therefore they might exist — and he uses the boy wizard Harry Potter as his prime example.
As Rugnetta states in the video, you don’t have to have watched last week’s episode about fiction to get what he’s talking about, but it helps.
