Alessandro Sbordoni (born 22 January 1995) is an Italian writer. He is the author of Semiotics of the End (Institute of Network Cultures, 2023; Becoming Press, 2024) and The Shadow of Being (Miskatonic Virtual University Press, 2023). He is an Editor of the British magazine Blue Labyrinths and the Italian magazine Charta Sporca.[1][2][3][4][5]
As the author of Semiotics of the End, he has been praised as the representative of "a new generation of digital natives" who analyze "techno-culture from within"[6] and his work has been cited by Slovenian philosopher Slavoj Žižek in an essay titled "The End of the World" included in the 2024 book Against Progress.[7] As Slavoj Žižek writes with reference to Semiotics of the End, "to quote Alessandro Sbordoni: ‘As the end gets nearer, more is yet to come.’ So maybe we already live (in) the end of the world. An end which stretches on endlessly, with no possible resolution."[8][7]
