Resumo: This paper aims at investigating the imaginary of the sea and its marine creatures in Vilém Flusser’s thought, especially in his most peculiar book, Vampyroteuthis Infernalis. This essay uses the ocean as a poetic metaphor to express the universe of digital technologies and its contemporary technical flows. The paper’s goal is not only to show the radical originality of Flusser’s book but also to demonstrate its actuality and almost prophetic dimension by means of a dialogue with other contemporary themes and authors in the field of cultural theory. According to the reading suggested here, Vampyroteuthis Infernalis represents a fundamental philosophical reflection on the theme of identity in connection with technological devices and digital culture.

Nesse ensaio, o oceano constitui uma metáfora poética para pensar o universo das tecnologias digitais e dos fluxos técnicos da contemporaneidade. Almeja-se demonstrar que Vampyroteuthis Infernalis é não somente o trabalho mais original do autor, senão que dialoga, de modo quase profético e com profunda atualidade, com outros temas e pensadores contemporâneos no campo da teoria cultural. Segundo a leitura aqui sugerida, Vampyroteuthis Infernalis constituiria uma reflexão filosófica fundamental sobre o tema da identidade na relação com os aparatos tecnológicos e a cultura digital.  PEPG COS-PUC-SP2018-11-14info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/galaxia/article/view/34444Galaxia; No. 39 (2018)GALÁxIA.
