Cyborgs and photography as an extension of our being

Abstract

This research analyzes the cyborg as an extension of the human body through photography as a means of communication and interaction. Likewise, it is limited to the thematic line of the Toronto School where the lack of interpretation of communicative ecology allows theoretical focus to constitute the understanding of the postulate of Marshall McLuhan (1964), which focuses on the influence of the environment. through the message. In this sense, the photographic act of Philippe Dubois (1994) consists of finding how photography resides in the irreducible medium of the act of its creation, from a qualitative methodology with a descriptive scope, its objective is to expose the facts as they are observed, to establish the reason for them. Finally, the research contributes a visual perception, which shows a link between the extensions of the body in the face of the concept of cyborg and photography, as a means of communication.
