«HOY ESTAMOS EN LA TRANSICIÃN DE LA ERA DE LAS COSAS A LA ERA DE LAS NO-COSAS. NO SON LAS COSAS, SINO LA INFORMACIÃN, LO QUE DETERMINA EL MUNDO EN QUE VIVIMOS.» El mundo se vacÃa de cosas y se llena de información inquietante como voces sin cuerpo. La digitalización desmaterializa y descorporeiza. Los medios digitales sustituyen a la memoria, sin violencia ni demasiado esfuerzo. La información falsea los acontecimientos. Se nutre del estÃmulo de la sorpresa. Pero este no dura mucho. Rápidamente sentimos la necesidad de nuevos estÃmulos. Como cazadores de información, nos volvemos ciegos ante las cosas silenciosas y discretas, incluso las habituales, las menudas y las comunes, que no nos estimulan, pero nos anclan en el ser. Byung-Chul Han desarrolla tanto una filosofÃa del smartphone como una crÃtica a la inteligencia artificial desde una nueva perspectiva. Al mismo tiempo, recupera la magia de lo sólido y lo tangible y reflexiona sobre el silencio que se pierde en el ruido de la información. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION This new book by one of the most creative cultural theorists writing today will be of interest to a wide readership. We no longer inhabit earth and dwell under the sky: these are being replaced by Google Earth and the Cloud. The terrestrial order is giving way to a digital order, the world of things is being replaced by a world of non-things - a constantly expanding 'infosphere' of information and communication which displaces objects and obliterates any stillness and calmness in our lives.
Byung-Chul Han's critique of the infosphere highlights the price we are paying for our growing preoccupation with information and communication. Today we search for more information without gaining any real knowledge. We communicate constantly without participating in a community. We save masses of data without keeping track of our memories. We accumulate friends and followers without encountering other people. This is how information develops a form of life that has no stability or duration. And as we become increasingly absorbed in the infosphere, we lose touch with the magic of things which provide a stable environment for dwelling and give continuity to human life. The infosphere may seem to grant us new freedoms but it creates new forms of control too, and it cuts us off from the kind of freedom that is tied to acting in the world.
