Dear memeticians,
I have find an article on memes and art. It is written by Daniel 
Dennet, and located at 
http://www.tufts.edu/as/cogstud/papers/memeimag.htm

For further information see: Bloom, Howard. The Lucifer Principle:
a scientific expedition into the forces of history. New York:
Atlantic Monthly Press, 1995. (Further information available at http://www.bookworld.com/lucifer)

The chapter "Poetry and the Lust for Power" (pp. 191-194) zeroes in on memes and the arts.

For an overall view of the nature of the meme, see The Lucifer
Principle chapter "From Genes to Memes" (pp. 97-101).  This also
covers some of the differences between gene transmission and meme
transmission. 

For a historical view of the increasing importance of the meme in
the development of human social systems, see "The Nose of A Rat and
the Human   Mind--A Brief History of the Rise of Memes" (pp.
102-105) and   "Oliver Cromwell--The Rodent Instincts Don a
Disguise" (pp. 161-169). 

For the physiological and psychological mechanisms through which
memes gain their grasp over humans, see "The Village of the
Sorcerers and the Riddle   of Control" (pp. 110-114) and "Why Men
Embrace Ideas and Why Ideas Embrace Men" (pp. 178-180). 

And for the role of memes in large scale social organization and
geopolitics, see    "When Memes Collide--the Pecking Order of
Nations" (pp. 195-202).

The idea is to motivate the user to

Gabriel Garcia Marquez magic- realism.

A Hypermedia Sourcebook for the Humanities

Interesting project; wish we had known about this last year when creating the video:
Children of Fate (made by my sister Hannie Voyles at Chico State Univ., with Miep Gies et al.

Any eye-witness comments you'd like to add from Amsterdam 1940-45, you can get me by email:
JosephaH@aol.com or see my website:
http://www.illuminated.com/JH_ArtArchive/
which covers much of my artistic life but which has thusfar avoided the above (very) formative years!

I'd like to come back and see more of this Sourcebook!

ciao,

A hypertext essay on memetics, where it came from, and what questions are to be answered 
to allow memetics to grow in theoretical sense.

For a compehensive theory on cultural evolution utilizing the interplay of 
memes, social organizations, and our pre-human instinctual patterns, once 
again see: Bloom, Howard.  The Lucifer Principle: a scientific expedition
into the forces of history (Atlantic Monthly Press) and the book's website
www.bookworld.com/lucifer 

The Washington Times calls The Lucifer Principle "a freshly viable theory of
human social evolution."  The 20 scientists who have endorsed the book seem
to concur.

This is a developing Internet client-server architecture for a
system which can treat image icons as context-sensitive words they
define.  There are several on-line artworks which use this system.
It will expand to include more interesting applications.  Beta test
sites (with running HTTP servers) are sought.

Meme-Based Models of Mind and the Possibility for Consciousness in Alternate Media

This is a fine art site with an overview of almost 50 years of art by one artist.
Check it out, feedback welcome!
Animated art and other features are about to be added; there's something new almost every week.
Enjoy!

In my mind art is a viseral experience, demanding a unique relationship between the viewer and the work.
We do not experience a Mondrian from a book illustration.  We may know a great deal about it from books,
    we can write about it, 
							talk intelligently about it
												...but we do NOT know the work.
The problem I have with most e-art is that it archives work from other media, and in the process
provides us with very little (information) of the original, and consequently very little of the viseral 
experience.  

For example, a text that describes the sublety of tonality of an accompanying photo
just doesn't do it for me.  If you are going to the trouble of shooting 4x5,
why make it available as a BUBBLE GUM scan?

Personally, I am interested in the experience, not the virtual experience.
The Classic comic has its place, but I prefer the novel.
