MARQUEZ, Israel. El smartphone como metamedio. OBS* [online]. 2017, vol.11, n.2, pp.61lpage=71-. ISSN 1646-5954.

This article is based on the theory of computers as a metamedium initially developed by Kay and Goldberg (1977), retaken afterwards by Manovich (2013) being thus transferred to the mobile phone sphere in its smartphone version. This proposal is related to the so-called post-PC and ubiquitous computing era, which is dominated by the increasing use of smartphones as the main technology for communication, information, and convergence. If computer can be regarded as the paradigmatic metamedium of the 20th century, smartphones are becoming the 21st century metamedium with steady increase.
