Memes are similar to Gene s and Virus es in that they tend to Propagate , Evolve , Corrupt and Mutate . All these actions take place in the memespace. As a direct result, the memespace is considered volatile and prone to errors and corruption without rigorous Error Correction . Memetic Engineering , Marketing , Advertising , Brainwashing , Disinformation , Doctrine , Evangelism , Indoctrination , Education , Promotion , Propaganda , Publicity , and other forms of Cultural Mutation develop in the memespace. The concept of the memespace requires a belief that the mind—and the Collective Mind , Culture —is programmable. Memespace is adapted from Namespace and assumes that Human Culture is programmable. In Programming Parlance , the Memesphere is defined as cultural Standard Input while the memespace is defined as the cultural namespace. REFERENCE QUOTATIONS :"We do not need a better definition of the word meme, what we need is a better classification of the different 'species' that exist in memespace." {Link without Title} :"Meme theory makes the claim that we can absorb new memes at any time, and incorporate them into our existing memespace, thereby making a new copy of that meme." {Link without Title} EXTERNAL LINKS
An alternative name for Memespace could be Memeland. As a meme itself the notion of where memes reside, Memespace or Memeland are two names that have to compete in the collective mind. Abbot's book Flatland sounds different than Flatspace. The first is a meme, the second is not. Why the name accepted here, Memespace won over Memeland? |
