TAILIEUCHUNG - Reflexing Interfaces: The Complex Coevolution of Information Technology Ecosystems

Since the first production of tools at the beginning of human presence on Earth, human evolution is linked to the invention of new tools, usually combined with new environmental adaptations. The symbiosis of man with tools and environments represents one of the main factors in human evolutionary processes. It is evident how this coupling is based on the biophysics of our bodies and the development of the social memory system called culture. In recent times, computing devices, molecular biology, and new media (all members in different ways of the information communication technology set) are redesigning the human embodiment and its ecological niche | PREMIER REFERENCE SOURCE REFLEXING INTERFACES THE COMPLEX COEVOLUTION OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY ECOSYSTEMS FRANCO F.
