The mural composed of a triptych presents three great characters. From left to right a kind of figure with Egyptian clothing, the central one man with three faces one looking forward, and each looking to the side, and the third space a female with his hair flying. The first, is looking from left to the right, is in profile, in his left hand loads some rolls or what seems to be papyri, in his right hand loads some thin and rigid gadgets. Start from this figure there are three circumferences, the first resembles a gear, the second to a calendar of the pre -Hispanic sun, and finally a man of vitruvio. In the lower part there are three representations of pyramidal prisms. The man from the center, on one side the representation of an old Impresióning press and of another satellite can be seen. The man has his hands taken to the chest and loads other cylinders, some books, some 3 1/2 dyskettes and also a compact disc. In the last picture of the triptych we have this woman that in her hands it loads what resembles a computer, while in the background of the background we have the representation of a DNA propeller, some molecules and a compact disc.
