Abstract

The growing presence of studies focused on concepts such as materiality of communication has brought to the field of communication two very particular types of approach. In this paper, we focus on the specificity of new media and the reappearance of communication models based on Claude E. Shannon's Information Theory and Norbert Wiener's cybernetics. The convergence of media technologies and digital computation - indicated by Manovich - brought to the field of Communication a set of new research problems or the reorientation of classic problems that we have to face reflectively.
