Memes

 

 

 /Everywhere/

 

I am confronted by Richard Dawkins' theory of memes. Those are mental units: thoughts, ideas, gestures, notions, songs, beliefs, rhymes, ideals, poems, teachings, sayings, phrases, articles, clippings, emails, quotes, prophecies, inscriptions, testimonies, audio messages, texts, movies, videos, bits and clichés that move from mind to mind as genes move from body to body. After a lifetime of reading, writing, thinking and unhappily torturing people with my tales, I will leave more helpful memories behind than a few.
