- Bricolage: The construction of meaning through remixing a combination of elements to make a new style. E.g 'The Night at the Museum' (2006) revisits history in contemporary society
- Hyperreality: A state in which images & simulations take on a more 'reality' than the state they represent. Thus, the distinction between reality & representation is no longer sustainable
- Playfulness: A disposition to find causes for amusement
- Aesthetic: Visual appearances, according to taste. E.g Simpsons
- Irony: Incongruity between what might be expected & what actually happens
- Nihilism:Total rejection of values & established laws of institution
- Parody: A text which doesn't simply imitate the style of another pastiche but instead is transformative in that it can either mock or shift in some way the original text conventions
- Intertextuality: The chain of signification in which texts make reference to one another. when one text refers to another it is called 'intertextual'
- Pastiche: Mixing of genres
- Eclectic: selecting what seens best of various styles or ideas
- Self referential: The one who refers to itself or oneself
