    Extractions: Milk-bottle opening behavior in a species of bird known as the British tit has been put forward as an example of a meme in a non-human animal. In this e-paper I argue that milk-bottle opening behavior in the British tit is not memetic and is better explained by appealing to its innate behavioral repertoire.

So I have taken it over and made it part of my own site. It can now be accessed through www.memetics.com as well. I hope to provide a simple, but useful, resource for finding out what is happening in the world of memes and memetics. You will find here a simple explanation of the basic ideas about memes links to other memes sites, and to some of the people involved in memetics, an annotated list of basic publications on memes and a list of my own publications on memes.

    Extractions: Home MemeLab Links Publications ... Back to Sue's site About Memes The term meme (it's pronounced like dream or cream) was coined by Richard Dawkins, Professor of the Public Understanding of Science at Oxford University, in his 1976 book The Selfish Gene As examples he suggested “tunes, ideas, catch-phrases, clothes fashions, ways of making pots or of building arches”. Memes are habits, skills, songs, stories, or any other kind of information that is copied from person to person. Memes, like genes, are replicators. That is, they are information that is copied with variation and selection. Because only some of the variants survive, memes (and hence human cultures) evolve. Memes are copied by imitation, teaching and other methods, and they compete for space in our memories and for the chance to be copied again. Large groups of memes that are copied and passed on together are called co-adapted meme complexes, or memeplexes. The word “meme” has recently been included in the Oxford English Dictionary where it is defined as follows “ meme (mi:m)

    Extractions: PaulMarsden@msn.com "Meanwhile, let us not forget that every invention and every discovery consists of the interference in somebody's mind of certain old pieces of information that have generally been handed down by others. What did Darwin's thesis about natural selection amount to? To have proclaimed the fact of competition among living things? No, but in having for the first time combined this idea with the ideas of variability and heredity. The former idea, as it was proclaimed by Aristotle, remained sterile until it was associated with the two latter ideas. From that as a starting point, we may say that the generic term, of which inventions is but a species, is the fruitful interference of repetitions." Gabriel Tarde,

    Extractions: PaulMarsden@msn.com Gatherer's ( ) demolition tour of mental memetics and the thought contagion metaphor is convincing and is to be applauded. Memetics organised around the interactions of thought contagions (e.g. Lynch ) is problematic because that interaction is neither observable nor measurable. This simple fact renders the thought contagion metaphor both conceptually vacuous and empirically redundant. It is certainly not by performing arbitrary mathematical manipulations and endowing the objects of introspection with contagious properties that will improve the status of a partial and misleading metaphor. As Gatherer notes, the thought contagion metaphor persists largely because of what could charitably be called a `disregard' for linguistics and cognitive science. To this I would add a dangerous `disregard' for the corpus of social science in general

56. Mammal Gene Memetics | Metafilter
    May 11, 2004. Analysis Uncovers Critical Stretches of Human Genome. posted by Gyanat 1227 AM PST trackback (8 comments total). It s not really a surprise.  
    http://www.metafilter.com/mefi/33020
    
    Extractions: My understanding of this is that it is quite surprising. Even in coding genes, you don't find 100% identical sequences between species usually because there are synonymous codons, which means that if there is a mutation in the right spot, it will normally have absolutely no effect on the organism. According to the article, this sequence does not code for a protein. So here you have a sequence that either a) must somehow, for some totally unknown reason, is error corrected way beyond the capabilities of any known mechanism, or b) Is so vital to the organism that any mutation would be 100% fatal, despite the fact that it doesn't code for any protein, and has a totally unknown function. That is quite strange and would seem to suggest that the central dogma is incorrect. Either that, or the universe is 6000 years old, and god put that sequence in there. Strange stuff indeed.

    Extractions: Throughout 1996-1997 I researched Richard Dawkins' meme (a cultural unit of information that propagates across our ecologies of mind) and considered specific applications within advertising, cults and postmodern 'designer religious viruses' ( Richard Brodie ). My research trajectory was influenced by my fascination with the late Gnosis Magazine and the science fiction author Philip K. Dick . I was freelancing for the Australian science/culture magazine 21.C and considering the initiatory/philosophical implications of Cyberpunk while in the Temple of Set .

    Extractions: On this message board I go to a lot, someone created a meme quite inadvertently. The servers tend to run very slow. So what often happens is that you press Submit, nothing happens, so you press again, and end up posting twice, with no way to delete one of the posts. Anyway, someone asked a question about "scalar weapons" and nobody seemed to know the answer, because the thread sat idle for a few days. Then someone jokingly posted something. But he accidentally clicked the Submit button THREE times, so the phrase he posted, Ah, they're 1920's style "death rays"
