Memes That Matter: Conversations That Count

is a social experiment based on two premises: that we know more than we think, and that visual metaphors can tap into this knowledge. To this end, I have created a series of memes that comment on current affairs with an eye to their metaphysical meaning. Memes that Matter is an attempt to explore these meanings in fortnightly meet-ups. Each session will explore a socially relevant topic through the lens of a particular meme and will consist of:

  • Introduction to the meme and its topic 
  • Conversations in small breakout
  • Sharing in community

Memes that Matter is a social artwork and operates on a gift basis. It is inspired by Joseph Beuys’ idea of society as an artwork and its conceptual underpinnings: the transpolar politics known as social three-folding, conceived by Rudolf Steiner.

Our first topic will deal with: The irony of it all.
