Recommended article: reflection on the change from the solid Gutenbergian Himalayas to the digital plains

“In the situation in which we find ourselves, the important thing is not whether the digital book is imposed or not, since the digital book is in itself another computer that copies its entire reproductive system and all its speed from the usual computer, What is decisive is the new value model that the digital universe is imposing, and especially in those who have already been born with it and in it. From the contrasting mountain ranges that the Gutenberg universe drew, we are moving to the almost infinite egalitarian plains of the Internet, where we have to move like nomadic horsemen, and where the narratives tend to be much shorter and more automatic than in books.”
