Spanish Abstract: Este escrito no es mas que una contribucion al estudio sobre la tecnologizacion de la colonialidad o el proceso socio tecnico, cientifico y monoracional por el cual la modernidad como metarrelato y el colonialismo como su filosofia politica se transforman en una distopia de alta tecnologia, que coacciona exquisita y placenteramente, donde el aqui y el ahora se convierten en el nuevo credo social de la indiferencia, pero sobre todo, que antepone la supremacia tecnologica del ser por encima de cualquier otra forma de vida. Entre algunas caracteristicas que surgen a manera de reflexion se encuentra eso que los antiguos llamaban ego: el mejor producto creado por la filosofia occidental post-socratica. La atomizacion del ser, la division de la mente con el cuerpo, asi como la metodologia que la sostiene y legitima, han causado en la humanidad el desarrollo de patrones tan sutiles pero especificos de comportamiento que nos precondicionan en y para la tecno-colonialidad. La cacofonia de egos que buscan para si mismos el mejor estado de bienestar posible terminan construyendo para si mismos realidades, bien falsas o verdaderas, con el fin de satisfacer sus deseos, o mejor dicho, los deseos se crean con el unico objetivo de saciar la sed del ego. Estos, por lo tanto, conforman la principal base de informacion —asi como los bancos de datos— que la tecno-colonialidad utiliza en forma de feedback para abastecerse, reproducirse algoritmicamente y generar productos acordes a lo que se espera de si misma. Su reproduccion es autopoietica, es una especie de bucle espiral ascendente. Un aspecto importante a considerar la propuesta conceptual de la tecno-colonialidad es la ausencia de espacios y tiempos, puesto que la coercion no ocurre en un lugar o momento determinado, sino en todos los lugares y momentos posibles, lo cual podria entenderse como una superposicion o una incertidumbre vistas desde la fisica cuantica. La posmodernidad, o el lado oscuro de la modernidad tardia, ha concebido una idea crucial para entender el fenomeno tecno-colonial, puesto que todo lugar es aqui y todo momento es ahora, lo que importa no es sino la experiencia en cualquiera de sus formas y dimensiones. English Abstract: This writing is nothing more than a contribution to the study of the technologization of coloniality or the socio-technical, scientific and monorail process by which modernity as a meta-story and colonialism as its political philosophy are transformed into a high-tech dystopia, which coerces exquisitely and pleasantly, where the here and now become the new social creed of indifference, but above all, that puts the technological supremacy of being above any other form of life. Among some characteristics that emerge by way of reflection is what the ancients called ego: the best product created by post-Socratic Western philosophy. The atomization of being, the division of the mind with the body, as well as the methodology that sustains and legitimizes it, have caused humanity to develop such subtle but specific patterns of behavior that they precondition us in and for techno-coloniality. The cacophony of egos that seek for themselves the best possible state of well-being end up building for themselves realities, either true or false, in order to satisfy their desires, or rather, desires are created with the sole objective of satiating the thirst for the ego. These, therefore, make up the main information base —as well as the databanks— that techno-coloniality uses in the form of feedback to supply itself, reproduce itself algorithmically and generate products according to what is expected of itself. Its reproduction is autopoietic, it is a kind of ascending spiral loop. An important aspect to consider in the conceptual proposal of techno-coloniality is the absence of spaces and times, since coercion does not occur in a specific place or time, but in all possible places and times, which we can understand as an overlap or an uncertainty seen from quantum physics. Postmodernity, or the dark side of late modernity, has conceived a crucial idea to understand the techno-colonial phenomenon, since every place is here and every moment is now, what matters is nothing but the experience in any of its forms and dimensions.
