postmodern photography?

I saw this today and thought that it was similar to how fiction is based on reality but chooses to deviate from it. E.g. Kindred and Slaughterhouse IV's time travel, and the general inventing that goes on when writing a historical fiction novel. It reminds me of what we talked about in the beginning of the class where we discussed how sometimes fiction can tell us more truths than factual textbooks. 

It also applies to what we were talking about today in our discussion over how accurate video and picture sources are, since they are from a certain perspective too. I wonder what historical metafiction through photography would look like...
