>MEME BREEDERS attempts to extract a few nerves from a living culture and
>hang them together in a room. The nerves themselves are an assortment of
>posters, fanzines, albums, and other communication devices produced by a
>new generation of cultural activists. Their efforts go far beyond the
>making of pretty objects, extending into the media, and into the minds and
>onto the bodies of the public. This practice is a kind of media dance. If
>the dance is successful, the creators' images and words will begin to
>replicate in society's webs of communication.
