From orality to writing

From the prehistory of the new codes

Abstract

What has orality and writing meant for the human being? What changes have been generated in recent years in the way of communicating in writing, based on the use of information technologies? This text presents a story about the development of writing through centuries and how it, coexisting with orality, today enters a stage of great modifications in the way we communicate, until forming a liquid, immediate and ephemeral writing, which generates new subjectivities in social life.
