Oprification is a great concept and really useful to map the trajectory of a "movement." I like this guy's perspective on how trends basically never go away, they just get museumized and probably the driving forces move to the next and most vibrant or powerful medium. The strongest feelings will always be expressed in the most powerful form--it's almost a tautology.
