| Memes have taken on the popular definition of sharable image templates used to express ideas on [[social media]] [[platforms]].
| | #REDIRECT [[Meme]] |
| | |
| The original definition, coined by Richard Dawkins, is meant to refer to the way that ideas self-replicate in a way that is similar to genes. A particularly useful or entertaining idea will spread far and wide, while the vast majority will come and go without a blip on the radar.

| In [[metaculture]] the term [[meme]] will refer too the Richard Dawkins definition, since this is a useful way to describe important ideas, how and why they spread. There are also [[memes]] that are [[necessary prerequisites]] for other important concepts that are essential to a robust understanding of [[metaculture]]. This terminology helps identify these specific ideas and see them as essential pieces to an overall puzzle. And the picture on the box is a [[fractal]].
