Abstract

The history of “order” is an important topic of Foucault’s cognitive system, behind the Renaissance, classical and modern knowledge-based “structure order”, there is a “disorder” moment close to the breaking point hidden. The relationship between “words” and “things” also presents different patterns with the growth and development of “structure order” and “disorder”. Through the focus of discourse practice, Foucault further explored the “experience” space that exists outside the language symbols, it reveals the anthropological subjective criticism different from structuralism. The eye of order is also realized in the observation of thought and mind. With the opening and placement of digital era, many changes have taken place in the way of describing sequential stratification. At some point, Foucault’s moments remain in the form of noematic discourse. In the prologue of the times, the coding of digital information and related clue track of scientific philosophy dispelled the territorial partitions and built some new order layers.
