In this sense, the post-pandemic "new normal" has not meant a digital overcoming of corporeality, as some enthusiasts of the ideology of technological solutionism and adherents of transhumanism think, but rather a new impulse of hybridization of experience in general, and of pedagogical experience in particular. Drawing on Merleau-Ponty’s approach in Phenomenology of Perception, in this paper I propose to address such hybridization by understanding the phenomenon of virtuality as a fundamental dimension of experience and corporeal reality. At the same time, I point out some limitations of the Merleau-Pontian approach to virtuality, which, nevertheless, allow us to make some relevant pedagogical remarks to question the supposed neutrality and inevitability of the current processes of digitalization of the educational field as a whole. A pesar de la masiva y forzada digitalización de la vida social durante la pandemia del Covid-19, la experiencia de cuerpo presente sigue siendo insustituible. En este sentido, la "nueva normalidad" postpandémica no ha significado una superación digital de la corporalidad, como quisieran algunos entusiastas de la ideología del solucionismo tecnológico y adherentes del transhumanismo, sino más bien un nuevo impulso de hibridación de la experiencia en general, y de la experiencia pedagógica en particular. A partir del planteamiento de Merleau-Ponty en la Fenomenología de la percepción, en este trabajo me propongo abordar dicha hibridación entendiendo el fenómeno de la virtualidad como una dimensión fundamental de la experiencia y de la realidad corporal. Al mismo tiempo, señalo algunas limitaciones del enfoque merleau-pontiano acerca de la virtualidad, las que, no obstante, permiten realizar algunas proyecciones pedagógicas relevantes para cuestionar la supuesta neutralidad e inevitabilidad de los procesos actuales de digitalización del ámbito educativo en su conjunto.
