This article on authors from the Chilean avant-garde examines the representation of the machine on the periphery of the modern world. Excluded from a rural life due to the colonial conditions, it was rejected in the city because it replaced God as metaphysical foundation and was at the same time championed as an indication of future modernity. In art, the machine was received as an icon of the new epocah and as an instrument which enabled the artist to reveal new worlds, to search for prophetic powers and to discover his own self.En este trabajo sobre autores de la vanguardia chilena, se analiza la manera como se articula la máquina  en  una modernidad periférica. En el mundo rural queda fuera de lugar por las condiciones coloniales; en la ciudad es rechazada porque desplaza a Dios como fundamento metafísico y a la vez es apropiada como índice de una modernidad futura. En el arte, es recibida como ícono de una nueva época  y como instrumento que sirve al artista para revelar nuevos mundos,  buscar la clarividencia y  descubrirse a sí mismo
