Presentation abstract

Humans are social being that needs to communicate, but with the advent of digital communication technologies, new elements must be integrated into our narrative environment. Has there been progress in the narrative field with human evolution? How does the new technological media affect the way we communicate? Following a historical progression and based on scientific advances, we will propose a classification and characterization of the narrative event, with an emphasis on the digital age.

Abstract
From the very origin of the human being there has been the need to communicate with his contemporaries in various ways. 
Initially with signs, paintings or orally. But in the 21st century a true revolution in communication has emerged and it seems that we have returned to a more basic language where signs, emoticons and acronyms take power in the revolution in the media.
With the development of new communication technologies in the digital age, a new form of communication with narrative variants has been created, but 
how has this narrative changed? 
What change has occurred when it comes to storytelling? 
What has been the evolution? 
Has a new narrative language been created? 
In this research we will analyze all narrative aspects from its origin to the digital age, its origins, evolution and contributions to the new media.
Until now, the narrative evolution and the communicative fact have been presented in three phases: oral, written (unified and accessible with the development of the printing press) and digital, in which we are now.
Through this presentation I intend to complement, subdivide and restructure this classification associating in a more detailed way,
the narrative evolution in its relation to technological evolution, especially in the digital period, answering our question as to whether there has been a clear narrative evolution in the digital period.
For this, a parallel study of the type of communication, the reason for it, how it affects socially and the change of the narrative fact with technological evolution will be carried out.
We will use demonstrable facts that allow us to establish the characteristics of each stage.
