Hijinks and resurrections of the Meme Maxis, week of March 27, 2023 — cover by NFT_Lady_007 in a colorful survey of artistic inspirations viz. the ReMemes Agora. Ablur with psychedelic colors, the indefatigable dervish of SZN 2 slows its whirl, a spinning top re-stabilizing into a funky mellow groove. Thirty-nine pieces of art from The Memes by 6529. Lift-off for Meme Lab and 6529Complaints collections. Hundreds of ReMemes, lovingly launched and sent scattered across the ether:Pingxi High Sch...

The collective smash of a comically oversized snooze button reverberates throughout Memesphere, as the lull between seasons, the liminal interlude—The Awakening—is prolonged for an extra week. However, “time off” seems to never be qu...

Highlights and uncensored outtakes of the Meme Maxis, week of Oct 31, a.k.a. All Hallow’s Eve – cover “lakereflects” by Burnasso.
Kindly welcome our newest member, paulwilsonimage 🌞 Just in time for our annual new-member-tithing-of-NFT-repped-by-said-member’s-PFP ritual !
The eternal overseer, Our Guardian Pepe, rescues us once again during our hour of need. Who else but Pepe to protect us from the advancing skeletal hordes, armed with fear, uncertainty, doubt, and the rags that follow rugs? This week’s first meme card by Kaejunni is an entire Choose Your Own Adventure story, open to interpretation and mood, packed into a 4-second animation-banquet (announcement):

As with all matters in the realm of crypto and NFTs, fates and fortunes can change in a blink. WAGMI? exemplifies this inherent uncertainty, its narrative illusion offering opposing stories depending on one’s viewing angle. Even if Pepe should grace us with his largesse, how do we know whether he’s the hero we truly deserve? Whose side do we align with then? What becomes of our journey, if we discover that WAGMI-to-the-moon necessitates endless tears and moldy moonshine?
The King of the Frogs looms as an even larger cypher from G9ralt’s perspective – now, perhaps, colluding with the masses of bony summer partygoers. The club may be just a little bit aflame, but the bottle service offers precious blue bubbly on tap. In fact, It is quite possible our protagonist is cast here in a far darker turn, reminiscing through pixel-colored shades on happier times, play-acting as emcee to an empty plaza in the open metaverse while in actuality under house arrest and handcuffed to the drink that once epitomized his glory.

Not a week goes by without a mug derivative from the Meme Maxis Mug squad, so witnessing this card feels homey – as homey as pumpkin soup.
fmiasp distills the duality into the Token of Truth (announcement), also his first open edition offering –

Punk6529 goes straight for the jugular in his 67th epic tweetstorm, layout out the worst-case scenario that many of us might try our best to avoid thinking about. As with all dark things, awareness of them may trigger discomfort but may contribute to a healthier and more effective outlook, one might hope.

Our indefatigable Zigmarillion, who once-upon-a-time conjured the idea of this group ––(thus, inexorably, altering the course of our lives towards ever deeper degendom)–– continues to brighten the ongoing chat. If this is a bear market, you wouldn’t know it:

Parachicaa publishes a charming ballad in 25 verses, titled “An Ode to !Ugh”. It careens whimsically yet purposefully through the lore of JakNFT’s meme card #28, the artist, the provenance of the exclamation point, the cultural implications, and a roundup of derivatives made lickety-split after its debut last week.
And Spuddhism envisions JakNFT’s Patrick as a convertible hoodie:

Coming to a house near you – possibly actually your house: the United States Securities and Exchange Commission! One of us is prepared for this happening, and that one is ReadyPereOne.

Enough spooky? The 6529 Memes Island by Deconstruct_eth is the hottest travel escape in the open metaverse, with art galleries so close the ocean you can hear the waves lapping (video announcement):

The UNIC META-511 course continues with a Q&A session with Punk6529 and Beeple:
Followed by a lecture by punk6529 on generative art NFTs:
Those attending the course (by joining the open metaverse for these live events) found some opportunities to hobnob, as Alex8rite shows –

A wealth of intriguing details accompanies each meme card, and this card by NatalieShau, #3 on Season 1’s “Use a Hardware Wallet” meme is no exception. Its metadata specifies that this android’s food is Electricity and their home is Cockpit and their “bonus” is Bottle Opener –

And oh, what’s this? Their clothing is Armored Body Suit, which G9ralt has taken the opportunity to swap out with a GMahjong Body Suit, fit for a trip to the memes gala –

Rakesh_pulapa presents a stunning image of a salt worker, using a “Droneception” technique for photo capture. Don’t miss his illuminating TEDx talk called “The Accidental Photographer”, on his process and career (hat tip parachicaa):

And reality is no match for MattScobel, who collects copious layers of geographical, topological, and other data in order to construct highly detailed 3D models:

Okay, put the kids to bed and configure your, ahem, hardware wallets to your liking, because it’s about to escalate quickly.

ReadyPereOne comes out swinging with an OG meme directed at punk6529’s call for images of nostalgia, translation helpfully supplied by mememaxis:

Undoubtedly punk6529 remembers embracing his autre nom de plume –

🍷
aRegularDad walks us through Awakening OM by apocalypticform (meme card 17) as a lens to understand “The Fight for the Open Metaverse”, and in particular how its triptych structure embodies significant meaning through mimetic reference and visual cues.

“100 Trillion Memes, 100 Million People” is a master mash-up of meme cards (namesake: meme card 26), made into VR gallery form (link to mint), by Uccio_eth (announcement) –

Speaking of TyLekki’s meme card, lukecannon727 trojan-horses instagram with it as a “digital collectible”.
Another fantastic mash-up by fmiasp, who combines this week’s NatalieShau work with “JPEGs Are Infinite” by seerlight. “You Can’t Hide This” is available on Manifold (announcement) –

Spuddhism’s “Parkour6529” is a charming combination of elements, riffing on Seize the Bees of Production (announcement) –

As we witness the propagation of our stories and our ideas, we simultaneously observe the very manifestation of ourselves. I’m happy to close out this week’s issue by passing the torch to parachicaa who, by her colorful, multi-chapter tweet chain, has scattered iridescent light upon our limitless potential.

Happy meme-seizing and life-seizing to all!
