This research aims to investigate the concept of the technical image in the work of Czech-Brazilian philosopher Vilém Flusser within the study of human communication, called communicology. In this context, the image produced by technical devices appears as the main communication code, responsible for shaping thoughts and desires of contemporary culture. From the objective point of view, its purpose is to store, process and transmit culturally acquired information; from the intersubjective, it is evidence of the emergence of a post-historical consciousness. The subject delimitation will consider two distinct moments in the author's body of work. The first one covers the reflections of youth, synthesized in the 1970s. The second one, covers mature reflections of the years 1980 and 1990. To elucidate the subject, the singularities of communicology will be considered first, then the dynamics of the concept of image within the study of human communication. In this sense, the historical, functional and ontological differences between the traditional image, text and the technical image code, as well as the pre-historical, historical and post-historical periods that represent them respectively, will be considered. For this purpose, this research was based on the Kommunikologie (Communicology) book and the transcript of the last lecture taught by Flusser at the University of Bochum in Germany, 1991, published partially in the book Kommunikologie weiter denken (Thinking further Communicology). In a complementary way, unpublished papers acquired at the Flusser Archive, located at the University of Arts Berlin (UdK), and the available literature, published mainly in Portuguese and German, as well as commentators which have established direct or indirect interfaces with the technical image or communicology theme, especially participants of the International Flusser Lectures Norval Baitello, Rainer Guldin, Siegfried Zielinski, Dietmar Kamper and Elisabeth von Samsonow, were also considered
