metamodernity

A synthesis of past and future--specifically retrofuturism and neotraditionalism ((inverted time regression (recursion))--to create a resonant eternal present; an “end of history; a completion of the Hegelian dialectic. Founded on recursive synthesism, it unites the physical and metaphysical; the existential and ideal; and the personal and universal into a single mythos.

Metamodernity is the successor to hypermodernism in which time is the final skeuomorph. In metamodernity time is manifested by three aesthetics: 1.Retro-modernism (1950’s motif) 2. Electro-industrialism (1980’s retrofuturism) 3. Object-infrastructure unity (2080’s)

Metamodernity has three primary technological motifs: human-agnostic consciousness, object-infrastructure unity, and information-energy unity.

In the cultural paradigm, each part is considered equivalent to the whole. This is in contrast to hypermodernism in which the part (attribute (imitation (skeuomorph))) is GREATER than the whole.

Metamodernity transcends the convergence/intersectionalism/monotheism/linguistics-centered world of logos to connect singularity with duality (the ultimate synthesis). This is called the Vikaasian Paradox. Metamodernity unites Eastern philosophy with Western aesthetics which are now believed to display implicit cyclical time. Academia returns to mythos in a final triumph of philosophy over science.
Metamodernity is a cultural reconciliation of the future-past and the past-future.

irony squared

Irony as an external attribute; beyond the qualities of an implicit component. Irony as a subjectively-applied attribute of an object which ALREADY contains internal ironic components. Irony that falls outside of the bounds of postmodernism. Postmodernists call it post-irony and ascribe it primarily to post-postmodernism; although much of post-irony arcs farther, into hypermodernism. Includes ironic nihilism, ideal ironicism (aesthetic), and ironic identity (racial; collective conciousness). Popular in the alt-right messaging approach

A number of late 90’s postmodern academics considered second-degree existential irony to be a boundary of postmodernism rather than external to postmodernism itself; however this analysis did not take into account the unique attributes of nihilism as compared to existentialism as a whole
Ironic nihilism is an example of irony squared because nihilism itself already contains implicit irony.
