A média fenomenológiája: Vilém Flusser kommunikáció- és médiaelméletének körvonalai és alapfogalmai
Phenomenology of the Media: Outlines and Basic Concepts of Vilém Flusser’s Communication and Media Theory

Summary/Abstract: This study undertakes an outline overview of Vilém Flusser’s communication and media theory. The author, who died in 1991, is increasingly experiencing a renaissance in contemporary German as well as English-language literature. Perhaps it is enough to refer here to the fact that an independent academic journal called *Flusser Studies* ([http://www.flusserstudies.net/](http://www.flusserstudies.net/)) operates for the purpose of processing and presenting his work. Flusser’s comprehensive theoretical framework, which he calls communicology, basically reconstructs the basic concepts of communication and media theory on phenomenological grounds. After describing this framework, or more specifically Flusser’s understanding of communication and medium, my study covers concepts such as the technical image, the apparatus, and the non-thing (Unding), which terms I believe lead quite close to a kind of comprehensive interpretation of the logic of contemporary digital media culture too.
