Digitalisation of data and the advances in ''information technology'' allow us to manipulate, desiccate, desecrate, defibrillate and duplicate our [[data]]. We can, in theory, handle ''any'' kind of syntactical complexity, optionality, or flexibility — if the [[algorithm]] is good enough, a machine can, instantly, ingest and process any textual construction, however dense. These are the tools we have available to us: with a simple cut-and-paste we can replicate, vary and augment at will. | Digitalisation of data and the advances in ''information technology'' allow us to manipulate, desiccate, desecrate, defibrillate and duplicate our [[data]].
