Abstract

Through the analyses of new fields of interaction between Human Sciences and informational technologies, we indicate the necessary questioning of the specific technicality of digital media in cybernetics networks. For this, we explore how the operation of communication protocols are permeated by elements of political nature. We argue that research related to the uses of these technologies in the humanities field should observe the technopolitical features that configure these mediations.
