This is where we learn the nature of memetics and magick, correct? Is there literature on the subject? Any kind of database of information we can utilize?

Does anyone here actually "practice" the belief of meme magick? I see everyone talking about it, but no one making an effort to use memetics to achieve any kind of result. Do you guys work in solitude, or is there things going on behind the scenes here that I just can't see?

These string of questions are brought to you by a curious lurker.

The Selfish Gene by Richard Dawkins

The Meme Machine by Susan Blackmore

Virus of the Mind: The New Science of the Meme by Richard Brodie

Contagious Metaphor by Peta Mitchell

Gödel, Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid by Douglas R. Hofstadter

These books are a good introduction, and if you are serious about memetics, you should read all of them.

The "Memetic Engineering 101" PDF on eumetics.com's download section is a good overview.

The ethos of the illuminatus trilogy is ripe for meme manifestation. It was from this book the illuminati was given credence in popular culture
