In this paper, the author presents the results of research with three subcultural groups, chosen for comparative analysis due to the way in which they unite culture, technology, and communication: hackers, ravers, and modern primitives. These groups utilize a sort of discourse which can be called "iterative" because like other iterative systems, it is self-evolving and constantly bifurcating into new formations. The significance of working with these technologically-based subcultures is explored, as well as its ramifications for the comparative study of consciousness. A new model for looking at sociolinguistic and cultural evolution is also suggested
