Wade, something bordered me,
In addition to the above I am intrigued with the following,
If watch myself ' perform ' something ( say writing something down )
and thus pick up my own self- created memes, would this count as
an element of cultural evolution seen as in your performance scheme !?
There is a creator ( performer)- me- , there is an observer/ perceiver,
me !
So something performed has been seen, has been transmitted, from
my eyes to the back of my brain, something has been processed,
analysed_ so it have to count as being a part of cultural evolution !
No !?
Or must the ' meaning ' of any cultural evolment in advance be defined !?
