I went to an artistic photographic lecture recently, where the guy actually said at one point [amongst other noteworthy pretentious intellectual, er, waffle] “I wanted my photography to explore the, uh, Arcadian periclinal realm…” For a briefly disconcerting moment there, I thought the poor man was having a seizure!
