The technology is becoming more and more part of daily life and as such has also become part of contemporary cultural production, with movies and TV shows that reflect this moment of humanity.
Here are some television programs (fiction only), trying to show some of the new technological culture.
Mr. Robot
The show features the character Elliot Alderson, who works as a specialist in digital security company. Soon he begins to act as a cibervigilante and is recruited to use their talents in political acts by an anarchist known as “Mr. Robot” and the association of hacktivists called fsociety. So Alderson begins to engage in ethical dilemmas when his political vision starts to affect their work.
Black Mirror
Running humor, Black Mirror is a British series that examines the technology under his darker bias, dangerous and as human nature is affected. The episodes are short, but always go straight to the point, criticizing the overexposure of some subjects only for the bizarre as really important things happen and how the internet and social networks leverage this situation, or a dystopian future where technology is present in literally every part everyday, quite degrading results. Each chapter of the series has a different story, with completely different cast and themes of the previous one. It’s worth taking a look.
Silicon Valley 
The comedy series goes on, as the name implies, the bustling environment of startups in Silicon Valley, with numerous micro technology popping up every day with a promise to “make the world a better place,” what the program is keen to mock whenever possible. The show follows the trajectory of a young introverted but brilliant, in an attempt to topple its data compression software.

The characters find themselves in situations common in supporting the common user, often without any knowledge of how to interact with a computer. Like many professionals, sometimes the protagonists are undervalued and lose interest in work, to the point of recording a tape with guidance support, such as “have you tried to turn on and off?” And “are you sure that everything is connected up correctly ? “to automatically respond to user questions.
The Big Bang Theory
Most have You know, size success worldwide. This is a show that basically depicts all the nerd universe / geek covering comics, movies, sitcoms, but more importantly to this list also includes the game worlds, technology such as robotics and more common technological products of daily life and science addressing issues related to physics, mathematics and astronomy. All curated by professionals not to insult the true connoisseurs of the areas.
