This article aims to approach the relationship between art and technology to reach the so-called “digital literatures”. For that purpose we pretend to develop the evolution of the technical creation (drawing and writing are considered as technical processes) and the incorporation of the machine in the twentieth century’s topics and imaginary. It addresses as well, through the autonomy of the machine, the problem of authorship in the work of art. Expecting to contextualize certain generative practices (text and images generation) characteristics of digital creation where the computer acts as a performative machine.
