“Technologies as users interacting with other technologies as prompters, through other in-between technologies: this is another way of describing hyperhistory as the stage of human development”
Luciano Floridi, The Fourth Revolution: How the Infosphere is Reshaping Human Reality

“One of the most obvious features that characterizes any technology is its in-betweenness. Suppose Alice lives in Rio de Janeiro, not in Oxford. A hat is a technology between her and the sunshine. A pair of sandals is a technology between her and the hot sand of the beach on which she is walking.”
Luciano Floridi, The Fourth Revolution: How the Infosphere is Reshaping Human Reality

“ICTs are modifying the very nature of, and hence what we mean by, reality, by transforming it into an infosphere. Infosphere is a neologism coined in the seventies. It is based on ‘biosphere’, a term referring to that limited region on our planet that supports life. It is also a concept that is quickly evolving.”
Luciano Floridi, The Fourth Revolution: How the Infosphere is Reshaping Human Reality
