Summary/Abstract: Situation of communication as closed (private) or open (public) dialogue of engaged people (with potentially non-engaged observers – distributors of information) is specific from folklore study point of view. There are some specific mechanisms of creating of folklore or non-folklore texts, imaginations as well as images and keys of context and networks in the so called „narrated world“. Searching of them could help predominantly to understand processes of creation and spreading contemporary forms of folklore.
