Representation Systems in the Evolution of Technology

Technology evolved, in part, by the possibility of accumulation of knowledge supported by several external systems of representation (words, graphs, charts, diagrams). Each system of representation emphasizes an aspect of the object or phenomenon it represents. You can recognize their participation in the possibility of complexity and innovation of the artifactual world, as well as the exchange and backup of technical information. It is reasonable to assume that new modes of perception have affected the ways of interpreting, understanding, and finally, designing and building new technology products.
