Biographie
Pierre Lévy is a philosopher who has dedicated his professional life to understanding the cultural and cognitive implications of digital technologies, promoting their best social uses, and studying the phenomenon of human collective intelligence. He has written a dozen books on these subjects, which have been translated into more than 12 languages and are studied in many universities around the world. He invented the metalanguage of the information economy (IEML), a data modelling tool with the expressive power of a natural language and the regularity of an algebra. Pierre Lévy is an associated researcher at the Université de Montréal, a member of the Royal Society of Canada, and has received several academic awards and distinctions.
