The Next Memes of the Press A prediction based on the recent events associated to the Paris Massacre, and the subsequent artwork produced by Charlie Hebdos followers. Script by Paul Gil
A "meme" is a virally-transmitted cultural symbol or social idea
Historically, a meme is a discrete "package of culture" that would travel via word of mouth, usually as a mesmerizing story, a fable/parable, a joke, or an expression of speech. Today, memes travel much faster than simple speech. Memes now travel instantly via the Internet.
The next memes of the press
The bulk of internet memes will continue to be humor and shock-value curiousities, as these grab people's attention more quickly than deeper meme content. But as users become more sophisticated in their thinking, expect memes to become progressively more intellectual and philsophical.
