Memes Definition

Memes have been described as ideas that perpetuate through culture.

The definition at WIKI for a meme is "A meme (pronounced /ˈmiːm/, rhyming with "cream") is a postulated unit or element of cultural ideas, symbols or practices, and is transmitted from one mind to another through speech, gestures, rituals, or other imitable phenomena."

I will endeavor to redefine meme to a subatomic level, then show how these bits of information form physics, chemistry and culture. That all ideas have their basis in subatomic particles. Ideas are only collections forces from subatomic particles.

It is impossible for memes to have their basis in anything but baryonic matter. All cultural ideas must come from organic chemistry and some areas of inorganic chemistry, thus all ideas must come from collections of baryonic matter.

Memes are the bits of information needed to make bosons. Bosons are the analog forces of information used by baryons to communicate to other baryons and dark matter. For this topic dark matter is not needed since it is not part of organic chemistry.



Organic chemistry is the special rules needed for carbon based chains to communicate information to create more efficient carbon chains. DNA and RNA are the two easiest examples of this process. From WIKI Link "Organic chemistry is a discipline within chemistry which involves the scientific study of the structure, properties, composition, reactions, and preparation (by synthesis or by other means) of chemical compounds that contain carbon. These compounds may contain any number of other elements, including hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, the halogens as well as phosphorus, silicon and sulfur".

RNA is needed by the DNA to effect amino acid production in a DNA cell. All the baryons that form a chain communicate to each other in series to produce amino acids.

Baryons store information about their previous state in gluon structures call quarks. This previous state information is required to communicate current information. This structure of the baryon is formed by gluons using the strong nuclear force. The baryon communicates to other baryons using the other three emitting forces; W+/- Boson, Z Boson and the Photon. The chemical process used to create amino acids use only the information created by the baryons and expressed by the 3 emitting bosons.

This simple process is how all information is received, processed and emitted. It extends to collections of neurons. Thus extending to collections of organisms. From collections of organisms it extends to culture.
