Resumo: This thesis discusses the contemporary developments of Mario Costa's aesthetics of communication in the context of nanoconvergence (the pervasive process of integration between digital, biological, computational and cognitive interfaces). Nanoconvergence is a historical event similar to the advent of cyberspace, which carries an equivalent potential for disruption. Just as Mario Costa's aesthetics of communication present a technological sublime which is mediated via technical images, we propose in this thesis the emergence of an aesthetics of nanocommunication, which proposes a nanotechnological sublime which is mediated through technological individuation.While Mario Costa's technological sublime relies entirely on the Kantian sublime, the nanotechnological sublime is inspired by the transimanent sublime of Schopenhauer. Mario Costa's technological sublime is connected to the virtual and to the digital reproducibility of imaging techniques. However, the nanotechnological sublime refers instead to the materiality and self-reproducibility of its principle of individuation. The nanotechnological principle of individuation acts as a transductive medium between unity of matter and the multiplicity of its material elements and compounds, as stated by Bainbridge, Stiegler and Simondon. The nanotechnological sublime is explored through three stages of research: scientific - research and presentation of the technoscientific achievements of nanotechnology; philosophical - analysis of the specificity of the sublime aesthetics peculiar to these advances in science, and artistic - research and analysis of nanoimages and the collaborative production of video art based on the concept of the nanosublime. Contemporary nanoimages reveal a nanotechnological imaginarium where references to alchemy and medieval ideology are present both in scientific discourse and the poetics of nanoart. The nanotechnological sublime belongs to the semiotic realm in which the visible and invisible are not in opposition, for the materiality of physical reality, established through quantum modulations nanotechnologically manipulated, is perfectly united with the immaterial lightness of the informational codes that enable nanoconvergence
