Abstract

A new approach to the digitalization of modern society is proposed, the scientific proposal of applying new holographic approaches that have recently become widespread in cosmology, philosophy of science, information theories and consciousness studies seem relevant. The purpose of the study is to analyze digitalization as a multicomponent phenomenon, the complexity of which requires several new scientific metaphors, for example, the metaphors of emergence and holographic design. Methods: analytical method, synergistic and holographic principle, holistic approach to society, socio-philosophical analysis, theories of information and information society. Scientific novelty. Digital transformation not only changes technical infrastructures, but also radically records the anthropological, sociocultural and ontological foundations of human existence. Based on modern works on the philosophy of digitalization and digital ethics (C. Burr, L. Floridi, A. Grunwald, E.O. Pedersen), the authors compare them with holographic models of the Universe, dark energy and consciousness (D. Bohm, V.J.A.J. Førde, S. Ghaffari, W.B. Miller Jr, A.V. Melkikh, R. Valverde). Based on this, the thesis is substantiated that the digital society can be interpreted as a specific «holographic layer» of civilizational development, where information structures and platforms play the role of local «screens» of deeper quantum-informational configurations of reality. It is shown that civilizational development…
