Connectivity also takes a spatial form because nowadays we don’t need to meet someone to deliver the message or be present in a specific location to find out the news; we do it through the internet, a connectivity that flows in space.
And to be more precise, we do it all from the screen to the screen of our TVs and phones. But with the rapid technological change and the addiction to the power of the web, nowadays the technology can construct an algorithm for each, feeding them with the information that will appeal specifically to them. Such algorithmic systems create a so-called social polarisation.
The same information is perceived and viewed by the individual as different from the information that would be viewed by a collective, i.e., TV and the phone.
This power of screen images distorts reality and visual fragmentation.
But how can this disadvantage of the media and image be turned into an advantage, creating new ways of seeing the realities and ways of generating new knowledge?
