From: Entropy and complexity unveil the landscape of memes evolution
Trajectories in entropy-complexity plane for the four Reddit communities. All, except r/AdviceAnimals present an evolution towards higher values of complexity that resembles that of painting arts32. Each dot is the average value of entropy and complexity for each year. Visually complex templates could be linked to the tendency of using memes to continuously represent social trends and attitudes, supporting the hypothesis that memes are part of the emerging internet meta-language.
