Summary: Boiling in the development of new technologies, marking the beginning of a digital age, is characterized by the importance of a key without which nothing of the sort had occurred: the information, which has become the basis of economic activity. His indictment, which consists primarily of the collection / storage, fragmentation / collation, and recombination or rewriting, it is carried out continuously and great speed in all areas of life in an era marked by significant changes in mainly three areas (and therefore in any other): power, technology and knowledge. These changes are giving rise to an environment that is known as post-modernism, in which the continuing fragmentation and rewriting or the use of elements already used in the past, are usual practices of every day. The continuous information processing defines the connections that make up the world and, therefore, the individual, who has suffered a change in their understanding of themselves and their environment. This has led to the represntación and analysis of the individual in the art world follow the same pattern that follows in everyday life, that is, to be guided by a structure based on overexposure, weak and fragmented and rewriting. Ultimately, what is known as information processing and the representation of the body in the ground artistic follow the same model, both entities open and infinite recombination.
