Abstract

Communication is an intrinsic resource to humanity and is therefore widely studied. This paper is based on the principle that communication is essentially a neurological process that starts and exists in people’s brains. Therefore, and based on the messages absorbed by the channels of human sensibility, the biological process directs information for decoding and interpretation in this major organ. The methodology used in our study is based on an interdisciplinary research model and focuses on bibliographical references and on what is already scientifically proven in neuroscience. Thus, and after reviewing some authors addressing communication, we question if, at any given time, access to communication products can be realized in the human brain and overcome the historical mediation of physical media. By broadening the theoretical frameworks, we also draw on authors of physics and biology, particularly in the achievements of neurobiological investigations, which, in addition to the incessant technological miniaturization, establishes a few scientific presuppositions that allowed us to enter into the unthinking communicative possibility of access by thoughts. This appears as safe, in that you experience times of man-machine dialogues in unprecedented interactive profusion, with platforms and applications that are permanently connected, which are conditions that pave the way for mental access to audiovisual content.
