With the growing need for interdisciplinary and international availability, distribution and exchange of intellectual assets including information, knowledge, ideas, pieces of work, and tools in re-editable and redistributable organic forms, we need new media technologies that externalize scientific, technological and/or cultural knowledge fragments in an organic way, and promote their advanced use, international distribution, reuse, and re-editing. These media may be called meme media since they carry what R. Dawkins called "memes". An accumulation of memes in a society forms a meme pool that functions like a gene pool. Meme pools will bring about rapid accumulations of memes, and require new technologies for the management and retrieval of memes. This paper reviews our R&D on meme media, meme pools, and proposes a new framework called 'Topica' for organizing and accessing the huge accumulation of intellectual resources in our societies.
