ironic skeuomorph

A skeumorph that is self-functional.

Self-function begins as meta-representation (juxtaposition) and ends as representation (self-reference).

A medium for conveying irony.

Including but not limited to vignettes, books, television, GIF's, and memes.
An ironic skeuomorph is self-referencing to the point of being a medium-in-itself.

metaverse

The postulation that this universe is the only universe because linear time is standing still outside of the universe.

Ie. the universe as a whole is moving at infinite speed outside of itself.

intermedia

Foundational phenomenon of intermodernism in which popular culture (mass media) intersubjectively collapses (interreferentializes) into hyper-atomized social media experiences or accounts each acting as their own broadcasting motifs, channels etc.

Predecessor to hypermedia (functional augmented reality) of hypermodernism.
In intermedia (second-generation social media) each individual social media account becomes a channel or medium-in-itself blurring (causing to become intersubjective) the lines between the individual producer and consumer.

hyperreal

An aesthetic inversion of the surreal in terms of function (medium).

A self-actualization of surreality from existence to experience.
Donald Trump's presidency is hyperreal: a decade ago he was in our TV show; a decade later we are in HIS TV show.

aesthetic

A meta-state that has a discrete beginning in linear time but no end in cyclical time.
Aesthetic can be deconstructed in this way: light has a discrete beginning (a past beginning) but colors (parts of light) come from the future.

hyperkampf

The self-actualization of the aesthetic (emergent) momentum from the deductive (effective) momentum of language.

This contraposition manifests itself through the contra-referentialization (deconstruction) of representational media most notably the mass media characteristic of postmodernism.

The contra-momentization of postmodern media effects a new intersubjective (subconsciously aware) sense of irony called Hypermodernism.

Skeuomorphism is the dominant medium in this technological era.
Hyperkampf describes a world in which the functional momentum of representation has become completely dualized against the aesthetic momentum of structure (emergence). This is indicated by a hyperreal skeuomorphic experience in which function or representation is an attribute of aesthetic; in contrast to the vice versa phenomenon.

hypernormalization

The surreal state of late-stage communism in which semantic basis of consensus reality is absurdity.

Analogous to the hyperreal state of late-stage capitalism (postmodernism) in which subjective (individualistic) reality contra-referentializes into intersubjective (synthetic) reality.
Hypernormalization was an absurdist era of consensus reality that befell the Soviet Union in the early 90's.
