Artefacts as Signs, Signs as Artefacts
Chinese Semiotic Studies, 2020Abstract The category of “artefact” has been analyzed by different semiotic theories and methods. Starting from the Marxian theory of the dialectical relation between production and use (or consumption), Ferruccio Rossi-Landi (1921–1985) maintained the possibility of considering every “artefact” – or use-value – as a crossroads between ...

Artefacts and Living Artefacts
Environmental Values, 2003The concept of an artefact is central to several bioethical arguments. In this paper, I analyse this concept with respect to living and also non-living entities. It is shown that a close relationship between bringing an entity into existence and its intentional modification is necessary for its artefactuality.

This chapter will describe the technical assumptions that produce artefacts and explain acoustic shadowing, enhancement, and reverberation, including the origin of A- and B-lines. It will also describe near-field, side lobe, and mirror image artefacts and how to avoid them.

Abstract Like every physical method, crystallography is affected by errors. However, there are two kinds of errors: unavoidable errors such as artefacts and avoidable errors. A good crystallographer knows how to manage avoidable errors, how to live with unavoidable errors and, most importantly, how to distinguish between the one from the

How Real Are Artefacts and Artefact Kinds?
2013It is often difficult to specify, in a principled way, determinate existence and identity conditions for individual artefacts of many familiar kinds, and this fact threatens to undermine realism with regard to artefact kinds and their members. However, it may be argued that at least some kinds of artefacts, especially those that may be categorized as ...
