The human being is an organism with an extraordinary past, wonderful. it distinguishes from other animals by making what I call prolongations of his own organism. by creating this prolongations, the human being has been able to improve or specialize many functions. the computer is a prolongation of a part of the brain, the telephone prolongs the voice, the wheel prolongs feet and legs. the language prolongs the experience in time and space, and the writting prolongs the language. (T. Hall, Edward. the hidden dimension. 1966)
