The series’ name refers to the fact that when a screen is turned off, it becomes a black mirror that reflects the user’s image. This paper 1 aims to analyze the side effects of human-computer interaction in Black Mirror’s production organizations. This research used discourse analysis, mainly from Mikhail Bakhtin’s contributions. The method consisted of three stages that relied on the collaboration of Industrial Engineering students. The research included undergraduate and postgraduate students working collectively, since this procedure integrates teaching and research and helps beginners develop a critical sense. The results indicate that in Black Mirror organizations there is a transition from the concept of human factors to cyborg factors, as well as the use of human-computer interaction to promote social control.
