Hacking the Memetic Code 2011-11-06 | The timeline, this is what we call the stream of our friends’ posts that we get presented when we use social networks like Facebook, Twitter or Google Plus, has become an important way to stay in touch with our bunch. But it is also a means to share information, news or entertainment by posting links to content, that we think would be interesting for our kind.
Public relations after the memetic turn 2011-11-06 | I don’t like the term PR 2.0. It suggests an improved version of something that has been around a long time.

What is the Memetic Turn? 2011-08-07 | "The Hanged" from the Tarot Deck of Charles VI., Paris, early 15th century. The symbolism of Tarot - similar to that of alchemy - forms a pre-modern memetic system. Tightly knit into other more or less esoteric programs of meaning, like Qabbalah or astrology, its images are at first illustrative - they picture very well, what can be seen on it, at second they bear an arbitrarily assigned symbolic value. The particular with memes as well as with metaphors is there creating a common space of meaning between several human beings, by which these different beings _identify_ with. “Literacy, the visual technology, dissolved the tribal magic by means of its stress on fragmentation and specialisation and created the individual.”
