Hi people of AoIR, I am currently supervising a student who is looking at how students use memes on Facebook to engage with campus culture/politics on particular university sites. Can anyone point me to the most recent meme literature/theories/studies/concepts? Your help is much appreciated!

I also have a fairly recent chapter on Memes that deals with some of their uses in political protest. It can be found in this book: http://www.jstor.org/stable/10.5749/j.ctt14jxw02, but I can also send along a PDF to anyone who is interested. I also memes in my teaching to help students investigate some of the ways in which memes as a visual language can be used to confront current events. I like to ask students to work in pairs to make memes that could be used as part of the conversation around a current issue that is important to them. We tend to use simple websites like https://memegenerator.net/ to generate these memes in class. I'm taking notes on the rest of this thread as well!

Hi there, Here's an article by a research group I was in that discusses the use of memes and other media (comparing "viral" posts to one-off posts for individual expression) as it spread through Facebook during the 2012 elections. Edgerly, S., Thorson, K., Bighash, L., & Hannah, M. (2016). *Posting about politics: Media as resources for political expression on Facebook*. *Journal of Information Technology & Politics*, 13(2), 108-125. https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/19331681.2016.1160267 Hope it's useful!

Dearest All I and my research group have been working on internet memes since 2011 in Brazil. My main concern is on political memes, strategical uses of internet memes and grassroots actions. We've been mapping and collecting papers on this subject since them and we have now a library of more than 900 works (books, chapters, papers, thesis) from different countries and in different languages. It is hosted in a project of our own called #MUSEUdeMEMES, or #MEMEmuseum in a free translation. You can access the site here (unfortunately only in Portuguese up to now): http://www.museudememes.com.br -- and the bibliographical database here: http://www.museudememes.com.br/referencias -- please feel free to circulate it among other scholars. :) Also we are preparing a collection now and we would be happy to share with all the interested ones our call for papers. Articles will be translated to portuguese and we do plan a forthcoming english edition in the future. Please keep in touch if you want to know more about either the website project or the book.

Hi people of AoIR,
I am currently supervising a student who is looking at how students use memes on Facebook to engage with campus culture/politics on particular university sites.
Can anyone point me to the most recent meme literature/theories/studies/concepts?
Your help is much appreciated! Thanks, Anja
