ment again, moving backwards and forwards. Certain deviations are pursued in order to explore essential ideas, justifying the abandonment ofany discourse of origin-de- velopment-effect.
And thus, in an attempt to represent and explore this complex ambiguity, diverse ap- proaches have emerged such as structuralism, logic and other branches that operate signs such as linguistics or semiotics, etc. We have moved from the machine to the biosphere, from causality to evolving contingency, from category to the pattern.
And even dating from long before the last unconditional confidence in linear ap- proaches, even before computers, ourhistory is weaved with a confluence of pioneer- ing attitudes, all of which added new knowledge and resulted in revelations leading to the pre-systemic era/ the systemic era/ and the meta-systemic path.
All this has had an influence on technology, with discourses being refined to introduce new symbolic languages that serve to create revolutionary artificial languages and algorithmic codes, granting absolute importance to the new digital architecture era.
However, as Lacasta explains, we should take into account the fact that although cut- ting-edge technological advances acquire importance when it comes to writing the history of the world, it seems legitimate to think that such advances are the product of a profound transformation in culture, and not the opposite.Thus, “if society makes so much effort to develop a tool as powerful as the computer, this would surely be the result of a prior need, because an awareness of change already exists. That is to say, wouldn’tthe personal computer be more a product of that new paradigm than the origin of it?” (Lacasta, 2010, pp. 7).So, he explained, in order to achieve understanding of tools of the present age such as computers, we must see that, rather than being the origin of this new paradigm, they are, in fact, one of its products.
Now, we add, they are neither the origin, nor the product at the end, when, as we ex- plained, the cause-effect dipole is no longer operative at all.
And, although we have fully assumed the consequences of the revolution, we do not know in depth the conceptual path traversed of these transformations.In an uncom- mon scenario, ambiguous (a non-deterministic reading of the element, advanced (Al- bers, 1935)), today unthinkable, where the computer did not exist. Recognizing the object as a powerful cultural fact also aside the digital fascination.
This discourse featuring a parametric panorama weakened by an excessively digital affectation, arises as something of a problem when studying the matter at hand, and- could be the subject of a next paper.
