/memetiks/ , n. [from meme ] The study of memes. As of early 2003, this is
|
|
|
|
|
still an extremely informal and speculative endeavor, though the first steps
|
|
|
|
|
towards at least statistical rigor have been made by H. Keith Henson and
|
|
|
|
|
others. Memetics is a popular topic for speculation among hackers, who like
|
|
|
|
|
to see themselves as the architects of the new information ecologies in
|
|
|
|
|
which memes live and replicate.
