With the advancements and increased involvement of technology, is it possible that anything in the world is "natural" anymore? Is it possible to say that anything is organic and in its truest, unaltered state?
Control strategies are an example of how technology has come to affect humanity--rather than focusing on the integrity of a human, the main concern is in terms of statistics and numbers, focusing on stabilizing birth rates and maximizing goal achievements. Technology makes us more like cyborgs and robots; it creates a system to chart humanity in, to study how to change it. We become codes of communication.
So if we were to consider ourselves as code, the next question would be: What are we striving towards and what is the optimal/perfect code technology is pushing us towards?
Some may technology is developing the world for the homework economy. I truly can't say what I believe will happen in the future and what society will become.
