Abstract:
Networks as locations of “the information war” are dataworlds which are shared and continuously constructed by man and machine. These networked multiworlds inform, generate illusions, simulate and construct, hurt and destroy without any direct human activity. The need for “placeholders” in the hyperdimensional webs is emerging. Computer science offers simple agents as a solution for information selection and navigation in virtuality. Do these placeholders have the potential to fabricate themselves since their movement in networks can hardly be controlled, their effectiveness in time cannot be limited, and their number can be continuously increased through copying?
