Title: Dredd Memes!
Post by: shaolin_monkey on 31 January, 2013, 04:43:21 PM
My colleagues keep emailing me Dredd memes.  I thought I'd post them here.  Apologies if there's already a thread for this.

Please also post any you have come across!

One of the most brilliant things about Dredd - and like all classic 80's and cult classic films - is that it contains arguably the most quotable one-liners seen since, well, the last decade or so. That's how you know an action film will stand the test of time.

Re-reading my post there I sound uppity... lol wasn't meant to sound that way, though when I get these sort of things in my inbox I think 'spam' and move on. I think they are better suited to a Forum in fact.

But a meme is a behaviour spead as though it were genetic, or a virus, not the result of the behaviour itself. So receiving spam and forwarding it is a meme... but the spam itself remains spam.

You see I'm all for evolving language but if one calls the result of a meme a meme you can't explain what a meme is anymore.

Everyone wanting too see where memes can lead - read Babble - http://judgetutorsemple.wordpress.com/2013/01/20/babble-a-graphic-novel-by-lee-robson-bryan-coyle-eddie-deighton-mild-spoilers/

It's the action of creating the images that spread, along a theme is the Meme, not the spreading of them.
Title: Re: Dredd Memes!
Post by: shaolin_monkey on 04 February, 2013, 04:42:53 PM
QuoteA meme (pron.: /ˈmiːm/; meem)[1] is "an idea, behavior or style that spreads from person to person within a culture."[2] A meme acts as a unit for carrying cultural ideas, symbols or practices, which can be transmitted from one mind to another through writing, speech, gestures, rituals or other imitable phenomena. Supporters of the concept regard memes as cultural analogues to genes in that they self-replicate, mutate and respond to selective pressures.[3]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meme

So basically, if we all make enough Dredd memes, and get them out there, we are spreading an idea, behavior or style that spreads from person to person within a culture.

(http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q279/Boxermom_2006/Decorated%20images/whoosh-over-yr-head.jpg)

ie the point you made in regard to grammar was perceived by the poster..in this case me as missing the point. I was objecting [tongue in cheek] not to the grammatical use of the punctuation but its stylistic use.

macro memes of that style are often or mainly free of punctuation..its a tradition if you like.

the effect is one of slight dissidence in regards to language... ie it is not completely spelt out. this also creates a delayed affect which adds something [not sure what but thats the ineffable nature of art/culture i guess] the idea is like its an in joke but everyone is in on it

the joke here was to counterpose the notion of grammar Nazi vs macro meme Nazi which is a double joke at the expense of macro meme cultural expression because it suggests that its radical "hip" nature is every bit as formalised as proper queens english... hence defanging its subversive pretentions

it loses comedic timing somewhat  in the explanation  :D

basically you haven't missed anything

Hmmm.  So was that helmeted parrot the Norwegian Blue?  Beautiful plumage. 

Mind you, if it hadn't been nailed to it's Sector House it would have been pushing up the daisies.

I take your point about the meme having it's own formal structure in language, and that it's subverting of the English Language is as straitlaced as formal English anyway, in it's own way.

But I still can't bring myself to do it.

To my old eyes, it just seems that somebody has reverse engineered this as an excuse to explain away the fact that they never bothered to learn English grammar and punctuation.

"Meme" is as much the process as the subject, Tips.  Basically put, religion is a meme because it's the process of spreading an idea like an infection, but (insert name of current pop singer) is also a meme, as is Star Wars, X Factor, or anything else that develops an awareness in the public consciousness after "going viral" - meme is just a fancy way of saying "a notion or a bit of knowledge that has been passed from one person to another", and you are correct that text-speak has been after-the-fact rationalised as a meme, but it isn't an attempt to excuse it, it's just a label used to explain the scientific process of people copying each other's behavior.  Correct spelling and grammar, being something we learn, is just as much a meme.

In the context of this thread, the meme is an in-joke combined with several other in-jokes to pretty much be baffling in isolation, much as the board's own in-jokes* would be baffling to complete newcomers, but it could be worse - you want to take a butchers at YTMND, a comedy website that comes with its own wiki to explain why you should be laughing, usually because someone has made a reference to something that existed once.  It's pretty much Family Guy taken to its logical conclusion.

Quotean in-joke combined with several other in-jokes to pretty much be baffling in isolation

So that wouldn't be a joke then? 

All jokes need to have an element of common reference to work. The danger with topical material is always that somebody isn't up to speed.

What we seem to be doing here is creating a set of common reference points which aren't funny in and of themselves and actually aren't that common either.

That's the bit that baffles me.  This seems to be an exercise that will only ever be understood by twenty people.

But interesting to see it all in action and if I had more time on my hands, doubtless I'd be doing this sort of thing.

Quotean in-joke combined with several other in-jokes to pretty much be baffling in isolation


That's the bit that baffles me.  This seems to be an exercise that will only ever be understood by twenty people.

But interesting to see it all in action and if I had more time on my hands, doubtless I'd be doing this sort of thing.

Initially, yes, a meme starts off with one thought or concept, usually with just one person.  The fascinating part is watching that meme spread, and the power it has.  While these Dredd memes may only start being understood only by a select few, they have the possibility of spreading until Dredd memes are as ever-present and understood as the cat/Cheezburger ones.

I'll give you another example of a meme that doesn't involve a picture of a cat or Dredd, which illustrates how concepts spread, and their power

From a moral point of view, I will always support the concept that a woman has the right to choose when, or even if, she wants to procreate.  This concept has been bourne of a combination of ideas (ie feminism) and the availability of birth control.  This is the first time EVER in our history that a woman can control biological drives, and therefore not procreate.

However, if it wasn't for the initial meme (the concept that a woman should control whether she wants to reproduce or not) the pill would be irrelevant.  The abstract concept that this biological function belonging to creatures that reproduce in the same fashion should be subverted at will, is an incredble meme. 

The power of this concept, this meme, is removing DNA from the gene pool. A woman who chooses to follow this meme, and not reproduce, is removing herself from the gene pool, because of the power of a thought.

This particular meme has basically bypassed drives created after millions of years of evolution.

Isn't that amazing?  Doesn't that show how powerful memes are?

Nope, I think they are still spam... I'm lost to the point of them. A picture with a witty comment I can obviously see is intended as a joke. But mass regurgitated images with half baked jokes are just spam.

I think my attempt to understand the phenomena is a failure. And I again now find that I fail to see how they are in fact memes. Oh well.

So that wouldn't be a joke then?

To all but 20 people, probably not, though I dare say these won't be the last 2000ad-related in-jokes we see on the board, as they certainly aren't the first - or even the first that someone had to explain to someone else.

and I have no problem respecting such a view as memes can be pretty repetitive..which is kind of the point I guess but  also why I would for my part keep them on teh meMe thrd

Rejection of memes is perhaps a meme in itself, issuing the real definition of the word.
