Biosemiotics, code biology, and operational interpretation
Chinese Semiotic StudiesBiosemiotics and code biology are two promising approaches to understanding biological phenomena as meaningful. Biosemiotics proposes that a defining characteristic of life is code-duality, while code biology asserts that the nature of life lies in its ...

Biosemiotics, 2008
This paper examines the biosemiotic approach to the study of life processes by fashioning a series of questions that any worthwhile semiotic study of life should ask. These questions can be understood simultaneously as: (1) questions that distinguish a semiotic biology from a non-semiotic (i.e., reductionist–physicalist) one; (2) questions that any ...

The lower threshold as a unifying principle between Code Biology and Biosemiotics
Biosyst., 2021Whether we emphasize the notion of 'sign' or the notion of 'code', either way the main interest of biosemiotics and Code Biology is the same, and we argue that the idea of the lower threshold is what still unifies these two groups.

Biosemiotics and Bioluminescence
Chinese Semiotic Studies, 2014Abstract Biosemiotics holds that all forms of life are capable of interpretation. Regardless of the complexity of the inner world of the organism there is always found some rudimentary negotiation of code duality or the presence of incompatible codes, which necessitates a sort of ‘translation’ of those codes into meaningful action.

This article examines the concept of biosemiotic criticism. It contrasts biosemiotics with the semiology of Ferdinand de Saussure and provides an overview of biosemiotics as a synthetic biological discipline. It describes how the emergence of biosemiotics widened the sphere of semiotic processes to embrace all living organisms on Earth and offers a ...

Introducing biosemiotic ethics
Zeitschrift fur Semiotik, 2015In this introduction to the special issue on Biosemiotic Ethics, we introduce major concepts and themes corresponding to the topic. With reference to Ivar Puura's notion of "semiocide", we ask: what are the ethical responsibilities that attention to semiotics carries?

The notions of ‘modeling’ and ‘interrelation’ play a pivotal role in Sebeok’s biosemiotics. In dialogue with Thomas A. Sebeok’s doctrine of signs, we propose to inquire into the action of modeling and interrelation in biosemiosis over the planet Earth, developing the concept of interrelation in terms of ‘dialogism’.
