Launch of the Critical Meme Reader III: Breaking the Meme, edited by Chloë Arkenbout and Idil Galip. What happens if memes and those who research and make them are theorized rhizomatically? Are memes the master’s tools that can set the working class free? What are the politics of publicly archiving memes? What would the meme think and feel, if it had a consciousness? For meme studies to truly theoretically evolve as a field, the meme needs many expanded definitions. The goal of this evening is to break its definition open with different visions, and to keep it open – letting the meme choose for itself what it wants to stay, be and become.
