Highlights

  • Telematization, Techno-reality and Systems HistoricityTelematization of almost everything; the world-wide ubiquitous “electronical” presence (“hic et nunc et ubique”) will make the idea of a global information village come true - in passive attendance or ubiquitous media coverage and presence

  • ; a characteristic information-technological historicity has been developing in complex systems: comprehensive information systems; expert systems; and computerized decisionmaking systems which are designed; developed; operated on and controlled by many programmers and agencies take on a certain “history” of their own and history-dependence („historicity“) that mirrors the development of “the system” far; and a representation of world history by and in the media systems seems to display a peculiar historicity for this “media-ted” virtual reality: “quod non in system is non in realitate”: Ironically; but really it seems to come true that “everything that is not in the very systems is not real”

  • New electronic and multimedia technologies allow remote control and intelligent sensing at a distance or in inaccessible environments (e.g.; robot manipulation in nuclear plants; in nanocompartments and environments; or in outer space technology); multiplying manipulative and technological power in extension and scope; it allows us to speak of reactions of the technological instruments and systems as “intelligent”

Summary

Introduction

Telematization, Techno-reality and Systems HistoricityTelematization of almost everything; the world-wide ubiquitous “electronical” presence (“hic et nunc et ubique”) will make the idea of a global information village come true - in passive attendance or ubiquitous media coverage and (pseudo-) presence. Some characteristic features of the New Technologies are presented and discussed as, e.g., operationalization, computerization, models and modularity, virtuality and artificiality, interdisciplinary interaction, comprehensive and complex systems, telematization and remote control, robotics and AI technology and automatization as well as “socio-eco-techno-systems”.
