Wex Definition

Wex (n): /wɛks/ (neologism, perhaps comparable to archaic Middle English, to wax/grow)

1) A web of connections, especially external connections – literally an external web or link on such a web.

2) A dynamic array of intersecting threads or elements, forming a complex network of connections and relationships;

3) The intersections or spaces between intersections of such an array.

In weaving, the neologism ‘wex’ might denote the crisscrossing arrangement of vertical and horizontal elements (and the empty spaces between) that gives rise to the texture and pattern of a woven object.

In memetics, it symbolizes the dense web of connections “woven” around a meme: such as its its intended and possible meanings and interpretations, related cultural references and contexts, online social interactions, and intertextual links through which memes evolve and spread, weaving together the fabric of digital culture.
