| Summary: | This essay describes the transformations of human experience introduced by ICT and corrects the idea that new technologies can be evaluated as “means”, which everyone can freely dispose of. In reality, ICT creates a new cultural and sensory environment, in which different aims are intertwined. The digital world has a causal power over people’s emotional and cognitive lives. New technologies, to which we delegate answers to our questions, are able to reinforce the practical and theoretical immanentism with which experimental sciences have described the biosphere. ICT, in fact, is built through the same deterministic model. For this reason, the artifacts that allow us to transcend the limits of place and time, which tell us what to eat, how to travel, how to take care of ourselves, put us in a new technological immanentism. The interpretation of online life (onlife) as part of the new infosphere reinforces a self-referential conception of reality, increasingly emptied of questions of meaning. |
