[ CREATOR CULTURE ][ ATTENTION ECONOMY ]
A blank or partially-filled base image with a fixed structure that anyone can drop new text or content into, letting a single format spawn thousands of variations.
REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
"That meme template has been around for over a decade and people still find new angles on it."
LORE & ORIGIN
Became a distinct, named concept once image macro culture matured to the point where the reusable format itself, separate from any single instance of it, was worth discussing on its own.
