Purpose & principles
About Bank of Meme.
Ideas gain value when people can find them, understand them, and build on them. Bank of Meme is a cultural commons with a long memory.
Where the idea begins.
Some ideas deserve to survive the scroll. The joke that restores perspective. The diagram that makes a problem clear. The sentence a friend remembers years later. These are cultural deposits worth keeping.
Bank of Meme is a proposed public collection of useful, hopeful, and beautifully portable ideas. Every entry should preserve its source, explain its context, and invite a thoughtful next use.
A rich culture has more people able to draw on its memory. Open the vault. Find something worth passing on. Add your care to the next version.
What guides the work.
Keep the provenance.
An idea grows stronger when its origins remain legible.
Preserve the context.
Store the meaning alongside the memorable form.
Make withdrawal generous.
Help readers share work with appropriate credit and permission.
A place in the collective.
Bank of Meme is an independent cultural concept in the Meme World Order collective, a web of projects exploring imagination, cooperation and institutional satire. Each project has its own identity and purpose.
This website publishes the founding ideas and principles. Future projects described in those ideas remain proposals.
Independent cultural publishing. Institutional satire; no banking, fund management, or trading services.
