Digital mutations and cognitive mutations, 1. The writing revolution

Society on March 23rd, 2012

The emergence of a cognitive technology disrupts and rearranges the deliberative processes that govern the practices of a given community or society. Such a disruption can have an impact on the architecture of deliberation networks, on the organizations and individuals who participate in deliberations, or on the standards and conventions that structure them. Or it can have an impact on all at once. As for the current digital revolution, one can understand it better considering the previous great historical mutations, paying a special attention to the debates and criticism they have ignited in their day.

Digital mutations and cognitive mutations, 2. From Gutenberg to social networks

Society on March 23rd, 2012

After the crucial passage from orality to writing, the invention of the printing press brought about an unprecedented reconfiguration of the circulation of information. The construction of scientific knowledge and political discussion was thereby disrupted, with a progressive expansion of reflection circles. Is the Internet but a new stage?

Mutations numériques et mutations cognitives, 1. La révolution de l’écrit

Society on March 23rd, 2012

Pour comprendre la mutation numérique en cours, on peut l'étudier à la lumière de celles qui, avant elle, ont bouleversé nos façons de penser, de voir le monde, de discuter. L’émergence d’une technologie cognitive bouleverse et réagence les processus de délibération qui régissent les pratiques d'une communauté ou d'une société. Le bouleversement peut concerner l'architecture du réseau de délibération, les organisations et individus qui participent à la délibération, les normes et conventions qui la structurent. Ou tout cela à la fois.

Mutations numériques et mutations cognitives, 2. De Gutenberg aux réseaux sociaux

Society on March 23rd, 2012

Après le passage décisif de l'oral à l'écrit, l'invention de l’imprimerie ouvre sur une reconfiguration sans précédent de la circulation de l'information. La construction du savoir scientifique et la discussion politique s'en trouvent bouleversées, avec un élargissement progressif des cercles de la réflexion. Internet n’en est-il qu’une nouvelle étape?
