The Library of Babel

Infoport

The author of this explanation Jorge Luis Borges goes on to say that man, in our world is surrounded by an infinite amount of information. He states that in a sense, our world is a library of information, in which we have no even tapped into. There is an unlimited amount of information and data, organized differently everywhere across the globe. He tries to explain how we evolved from being our own librarians in ancient times to what we are today. We are simply living in our own library, and we are our own librarians; Teaching, learning, and living.
