That reminds me of an astonishingly pretentious book that, in its preface, used the author-invented word "architechtonics" without the slightest bit of irony. (It was, as I recall, a book on something along the lines of social theory intersecting with abstract theater -- and I mean abstract theater that's difficult to distinguish from the most self-involved of performance art.)
