This work aims to describe and analyze the experience of the indigenous community
Paiter-Suruí, located between the states of Rondonia and Mato Grosso, which
experiences a process of technological integration. From materials posted on the internet
about the Suruí´s partnerships, specially the partnership formalized with Google, is done
a study of the position change of the Amazonian Indians, historically relegated to a
subordinated position, who, in this new technological scenario, gains voice and ability
to interfere in their own narrative, in particular using the internet. The concepts of "to
see" and "to look", "social capital" and an overview on the imaginary built about the
Indians, intends to subsidize a brief phenomenological analysis supported by a field
research, which aims to understand how the Suruís see subjectively the objective
phenomena they experience. In addition, other discussions will be raised during the
work, such as post-colonialism, the dialogue between tradition and modernity and
hybridization of cultures.
