Abstract
⺠We model the co-evolution of cultures, social networks, and physical locations. ⺠In doing so, we extend Axelrod's model of cultural dissemination. ⺠We analyze the evolution of social network communities and their cultures. ⺠Communities become culturally diverse first before they turn culturally homogeneous. ⺠Larger lattice sizes and population densities promote homogenization.
