Re: Peirce List • Robert Marty Re: Peirce List • Robert Marty Dear Robert, Let’s go back to a point where paths diverged in the yarrow wood and a lot of synchronicity was lost … Variant understandings of words like … Continue reading →

Sign Relations • Connotation

Posted on June 24, 2020 by Jon Awbrey

Another aspect of a sign’s complete meaning concerns the reference a sign has to its interpretants, which interpretants are collectively known as the connotation of the sign.  In the pragmatic theory of sign relations, connotative references fall within the projection … Continue reading →

Sign Relations • Denotation

Posted on June 23, 2020 by Jon Awbrey

One aspect of a sign’s complete meaning concerns the reference a sign has to its objects, which objects are collectively known as the denotation of the sign.  In the pragmatic theory of sign relations, denotative references fall within the projection … Continue reading →

Sign Relations • Dyadic Aspects

Posted on June 21, 2020 by Jon Awbrey

For an arbitrary triadic relation whether it is a sign relation or not, there are six dyadic relations obtained by projecting on one of the planes of the -space   The six dyadic projections of a triadic relation are defined … Continue reading →

Animated Logical Graphs • 33

Posted on June 18, 2020 by Jon Awbrey

A reader’s request for more examples of animated logical graphs prompted me to look again at the User Guide for my Theme One Program, whose exposition develops a series of logical graphs increasing in complexity from extremely simple to more substantial … Continue reading →

Differential Logic • Discussion 3

Posted on June 17, 2020 by Jon Awbrey

Re: R.J. Lipton • P<NP Instead of boolean circuit complexity I would look at logical graph complexity, where those logical graphs are constructed from minimal negation operators. Physics once had a frame problem (complexity of dynamic updating) long before AI … Continue reading →

Sign Relations • Examples

Posted on June 16, 2020 by Jon Awbrey

Because the examples to follow have been artificially constructed to be as simple as possible, their detailed elaboration can run the risk of trivializing the whole theory of sign relations.  Despite their simplicity, however, these examples have subtleties of their … Continue reading →

Sign Relations • Discussion 4

Posted on June 15, 2020 by Jon Awbrey

Re: Peirce List • Edwina Taborsky A note on a couple of recurring themes may be useful at this point. Peirce’s “metaphorical argument” for transforming discussion of interpretive agents, whether individuals or communities, to discussion of interpretant signs is as … Continue reading →
