It's big media perspective and well written. It's importance in the countries of media censorship is I think underplayed. It's good read. It mentions Marx, Orwell and Swift in one article. Any medium that contributes to that can't be all bad....

In contrast to genes, memes are not encoded in any universal code within our brains or in human culture. The meme for vanishing point perspective in two-dimensional art, for example, which first appeared in the sixteenth century, can be encoded and transmitted in German, English or Chinese; it can be described in words, or in algebraic equations, or in line drawings. Nonetheless, in any of these forms, the meme can be transmitted, resulting in a certain recognizable element of realism which appears only in art works executed by artists infected with this meme., says Peter J. Vajk.
