ABSTRACT

The purpose of this paper is to examine the hypertext that digital technology has created from the viewpoint of memory and present the direction of development under the premise that knowledge starts from memory and knowledge structuring deals with the memory. The way in which people acquire, store and use knowledge, that is, knowledge structuring, is linked to the development of technology. Knowledge is the result of human thought activities, but the structuring that reveals it as concrete reality is the skill of technology. The invention of the printing press provided a turning point in knowledge structuring. Since manuscripts were standardized and mass produced in print, the circulation of knowledge was widespread, and after ancient Athens, mankind once again experienced civil democracy through the sharing of knowledge and information. Computers and the Internet structure knowledge in a completely different way from printers. It is not the metaphorical dimension of analog and digital, but the digital grammar of information-oriented knowledge structure that can be called 'hypertext' in the way texts place knowledge, in author's relation with reader, Once again, the revolutionary turning point of human intellectuals is scheduled. When the invention of the letter did not have to save everything in my mind, human intelligence was able to make a more sophisticated and complex idea. The typography supported the intellectual activities of human beings by facilitating the union of the forms that enable the invention to form tacit and by operating the hierarchical order and power mechanism of the knowledge system. It is clear that the artificial body of computers and the Internet (all techniques imitate the human body) weakens our memory. Instead, they will strengthen their ability to ask questions by improving their ability to think where they are and how to find them. Digital memory is the transfer of the contents of memory to the body of the machine, not to the human body. It is the most evolved device in terms of storage and preservation of memory, not because it relies on finite human memory, but because it is memorized by the machine. The problem is whether creativity and creativity can be expressed on the Internet by re-establishing the context of memory and expanding to imagination. At this point, the role of human engineering is expected. Hypertextro, the current knowledge structuring method, is unable to distinguish between knowledge and information, tagging uselessness and utility with quantitative values, and collision between memory and record making boundaries of thought impossible. Hypertext also repeats the type of the last medium in the transitional period. The new knowledge structuring method that overcomes the limitation of hypertext will emerge soon in the development of technology. It should be able to call the emergence of digitality beyond postmodernity by presenting direction of overcoming.
