Abstract

The manipulation and treatment of the images by computer has meant important changes in the semiotic studies on communication. The infographic sign is a different way of looking at the world that draws up a techno-communication phenomenology from its effects on the human experience. Besides these technical transformations in the knowledge of our environment is producing a new epistemologic paradigm based on the discursive construction of the effect of the truth.
