"Copies in an Age of Network Culture" is interested in the possiblities in how network culture, an organism with an ever increasing speed, has physically change architecture - an industry notoriously known for its extreme slowness.


Today, the network not only connects the world, it reconfigures both culture and subjectivity by transforming the way we produce and share idas. The 1976 book, The Selfish Gene, by Richard Wakins defines a meme as a set of cultural data that acts like a genome - replicating, spreading and mutating in repsons to the selectiv demands of the culture in which they develop. Yet, information when inmitated is subject to variation, and no copy is in fact the same.
