Abstract

The article aims to bring some initial notes on the investigation of the relationship between the images produced by technological apparatus and the construction of reality in contemporaneity. Thus, it is the concept of reality as a product between the actual and virtual, and from the analysis of three philosophical existing proposals, attempts to explain how this phenomenon happens and how it marks a profound change in human processes of cognition and perception of the world in technological society.
