The formation adventure in a technologized world

Matrix is a trilogy (Matrix, Matrix Reloaded and Matrix Revolutions) of the science
fiction genre, directed by the Wachowski sisters and starring Keanu Reeves. This work became
feverish at the time it was released (1999, 2002 and 2003), where the three films were box
office success.
We can observe several style and technology trends generated from this work.
Researchers at HRL Laboratories, for example, found that when you use transcranial
stimulation through a direct pulse current, you are able to emulate experiences from veteran
pilots to apprentice pilots, turning the process into an innovative simulation and training
project. of flights. The simulation of synapses acquired over the life of an experienced pilot is
transferred to someone who is raw in the subject, so that one can gain past knowledge, thus
learning much faster (Link Matter). The same is true of the movie The Matrix, where he learns
Kung Fu or when Trinity learns to fly a helicopter.
We have said that the materiality that calls us to this reflection is the film. It is a
question of saying, in fact, that the human-machine relationship is at stake on the stage of the
enunciations that are established here, since it itself will be on the scene. From the new
technologies based on microelectronics, therefore, changes the axis of the relationship
between man and technology, which now happens with processes, and no longer with
products. Thus, the substitution of rigidity for flexibility means that, by mastering processes,
the possibilities of using technologies are no longer limited by the materialized science in the
product, but depend on the knowledge present in the producer or user.
We can affirm that this transformation can take place in each of our lives in two ways:
we either throw ourselves in the direction of the big bets and choices we envision throughout
our lives, or the circumstances around us will throw us into the changes that We did not
choose. Apparently, it's a choice like the one presented in the movie: either the blue pill of
accepting the inevitable, or the red pill of the new, the scratch, the rabbit hole, which is not
known exactly where it will end.
