Abstract

Development of information society generates total informatization that has led to information and communication technologies interfering in culture space. Turning from means of development of culture into a new cultural phenomenon, these technologies generate new cultural fi elds which are a formation basis of “digital culture”. Separate fragments of cultural “kernel”, that results in the mosaic partial perception of space of culture taken out from its overall context. Th e article discusses an interaction between the “digital culture” and “analog culture”, which is a “kernel” of human civilization. Processes of preservation and translation of “kernel” of culture as a result of informatization of cultural space are subject to the philosophical analysis; the arisen problem of transfer of a cultural code in the conditions of development of “digital culture” is analyzed. In addition, it attempts to predict further development as of a cultural space, in general, and transformation of “cultural kernels”.
