I like this idea a lot, actually.
The digital man is the analog kid - all grown up and looking at life through a different lens.

The analog kid sees the world in 'analog' terms - every possibility is before him, and he can't wait to go out and explore it all (similar idea to 'Circumstances').

The digital man notices 'scraps' of things, here and there. Everything is 'subdivided and synthetic'. In the same way a digital signal represents an analog (real-world) signal by subdividing it and losing information.

So, in some sense, it's making an analogy between digital/analog signals...
So, in some sense, it's making an analogy between digital/analog signals and "maturity in an industrialized world": when you go from kid to man, you take on a more focused perspective (of isolated things rather than ranges of possibility). It's also probably inspired by audio engineering concepts that were becoming widespread when Signals was created (analog vs digital audio, debates about purity of sound, tube amps etc etc).
@shredderboi14 you can also view these lyrics as the rise of the anti Christ the album signals in my opinion was about purity to unpurity the anolog kids represents the purity digital man represents in purity with phrases such as Babylon and zion if you really go back and listen to many of rushes albums youll start noticeing a lot of siritaul over tones not only are the outstanding muscians there lyrics talk about life
