I thoroughly enjoyed this paper, which asks, "does digital technology function to reproduce more effectively and efficiently knowledge which already exists, or does it produce new theories and approaches in disciplines such as mathematics and science?" The author draws on Michael Halliday's systemic functional (SF) theory to explain how we create meaning with different forms of communication, such as language, visual imagery, gesture, sound, music, three dimensional objects and architecture.
