Preferred term

cyberspace and cyberculture  

Definition(s)

  • The concepts of cyberspace and cyberculture refer not only to the many types of communication and content that have developed by fusing the Internet with a variety of devices but also to their producers and users, as well as the values that are being built on line. The prefix cyber denotes “piloting” or “governing” and was originally used in the word cybernetics, defined by Norbert Weiner in 1948 as the science of control and communication in the animal and the machine.
