Abstract

* Micro-cultural dynamics of cognition and communication form, maintain, and transform culture. * Micro-cultural dynamics comprise production, grounding, interpretation, and memory. * Micro-cultural dynamics leave cultural artefacts that carry cultural information as an outcome. * Cognitive and communicative processes generate a cultural niche, to which they in turn adapt. * Cultural dynamics tend to retain information for individual survival and collective action.
