This paper discusses the deconstructionist category of absence applied by Derrida to the notion of writing, as it is possible for a written message to function despite the physical non-presence of the sender, the recipient, and the context. Derrida challenges the absolute predominance of the Logos, manifested in orality, and sug gests elevating the status of writing. The Derridean concept of arche-writing entails comprehending the written sign as an infinite idea that transcends the present. This paper attempts to relate Derrida’s theory to the 21st century’s ubiquitous virtual communication, which largely involves graphic signs. Nowadays, ICT solu tions enable an anonymous sender to communicate with an absent recipient in an unspecified context by means of written characters. The exploration of digital space marks the end of the era of the Logos, and begins the period when writing turns into a symbol of permanence and infinity.
