| description | This article has attempted to discuss the non-anthropocentric semiotics of writing ageny. I have argued, following some key notions of cybersemiosis, intermediation, architext, ANT that conceptions of material agency find in computational writing machines, a more productive explanative model. Indeed, the very existence of human writer and non-human agents of writing are regarded as meaningful actants that cowork in the semiotic mediation. I have endeavoured above to affirm that human writer and material agents as relational entities participate in the emergent sign process. In sum, the purpose of this article is to construct an epistemological problematics of the digital writing in the perspective of a non-anthropocenric concept of post-human writing. The digital media revolution is intimately related to the writing revolution. In particular in the context of artificial intelligence, it’s time to rethink the nature of writing regarding the question of agency of writing. This article poses a fundamental question, who writes in fact in the digital era ? In this regard, a non-anthropocentric conception of writing is needed to explain the posthuman literacy which is based upon the assemblages of human and machine writing. This article insists on the fact that the machine behaves in the digital writing. |
