ABOUT THE NON EUCLIDEAN NATURE OF INTERNET'S BIG DATA AND ITS CONSEQUENCES In this paper we discuss the non Euclidean nature of navigable Big Data, hinting as it could introduce – thanks to its combinatorial richness – the possibility of multiple interpretation spaces. We also propose that, in such structures, exploration algorithms have a paradoxical nature insofar they either enhance human biases or are useless. Finally, we propose that Internet could be used as an artificial universe for observing constructivism at work.
