Abstract
The present article aims to demonstrate, starting from navigation and shipwreck as metaphors for the human existence and the current state of western civilization, how the thinking of Vilém Flusser contributes to an ethical conduct in the age of digital imagination and technical images. Flusser is one of the few media and digital technologies theorists, who offers through basic concepts, a dignified answer to the destructive misadventure in which humanity finds itself, not only in virtual spaces and realities.
