There are several categories; religions, political systems and
economic orders, racial, sexual and gender orientation caste systems,
the memes for money, clothing as a social necessity, the 90 degree
angle and the predominance of circles, triangles and squares in our
construction of our built environment, the tool meme, the sign meme,
the text meme, the nuclear family meme, the scientific investigation
meme, the memetic roots of forbidden vs. acceptable substance use,
the various memes for color, form and shade complementarity in
painting and tonality, timbre and rhythm blend in music,the gambling
meme, the memes for prostitution and pornography prohibition, the
anti-suicide meme, the incest taboo, the evolution of the spice and
perfume palettes, etc.
These barely scratch the surface; it truly is
a monumental project; one that will take much thought and time.
