INTRODUCTION
She noted two different types of replicators. (Genes & Memes) Susan Blackmore is an English scientist, that has been studying mimetics. She said that is going to be another replicator. (Techno -meme)
Replicators
They are particles or behaviours that they copy some information by different ways. They can be: biological (genes), psicological (memes), technological (temes).
Genes
They are the most primitive ones. They pass the information by biological processes. Everybody have it. They appeared when life began. They involves on the abilities to learn, or to do sports.
Memes
Are ideas or behaviours, that are pass by learning or imitation. They move throught the socialcultural atmosphere, like a virus. Some examples are: thoughts, theories, gestures, practices, fashions, habits, songs and dances.
Temes
It will happen on the future. Are ideas or behaviours that are pass by technological information. Some examples are: fashions, music styles, comsumption of computers, consoles, trademarks, etc…
Conclusions
Only temes are hypothetical. All of them are very dangerous for humanity, because they change people’ minds.
