Accepting the idea that law, in a broad sense, is characterised by the constitutive presence of an articulated set of communicational practices, in this work I will attempt to identify a reference scheme to analyse the transformation induced by the Information technology revolution on legal communication. To this end, first of all, I will present a map of the ways in which the so called Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) affect law; then—through the category of “Metaverse”—I will describe the current state of technological convergence towards a more advanced datafication of human relations; finally, with the help of the reflections proposed by Walter J. Ong on the so-called “secondary orality”, I will attempt to refine the proposed map so that it may constitute a useful heuristic tool for tackling the next evolutionary step in legal relationality.
