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.

metamodernism 

Convergence between symbol and irony (time). As opposed to convergence between function and irony (form) in Hypermodernism and existentialism and irony (nihilism) in Postmodernism.
In metamodernism the infinity symbol literally resembles linear time moving through a cyclical time paradigm--it is no mere representation of a concept.

Metapodding 

The act of rolling oneself tightly in a blanket so as to resemble the Pokémon Metapod. Used to gain warmth or to immobilize oneself in preparation for evolution.
My heater broke last night and it was freezing in my bedroom. I was metapodding trying to gain some warmth.

Jessie was so tired after a day at school that she metapodded and took a nap.

metacortex 

The name of the company Neo worked for in the movie "The Matrix".

The roots of this word are meta-, which according to Webster's means "going beyond or higher, transcending," and -cortex, which is "the outer layer (boundary) of gray matter surrounding the brain." Thus, Metacortex is "transcending the boundaries of the brain," which is precisely what Neo proceeds to do.
Neo worked for Metacortex.

Metapod, a dud pokemon. This pokemon just sits there and all he can do is harden. This pokemon defies the laws of physics to stand up considering its crescent shape.
You have just caught a Metapod.
Metapod was tossed away. (Set "Free")
