Biosemiotics and ecological monitoring
Sign Systems Studies, 2001 During the recent decades, a global culrural-institutional network has gradually grown lip to project, implement, and use an enormous technological web that is supposed to observe, monitor, communicate, inventory, and assess our environment and its ...

Ecology Letters, Volume 27, Issue 10, October 2024.In this study, we expanded the principles of island biogeography to the field of ecoacoustics. We examined the relative importance of island size and isolation in predicting the spectro‐temporal richness of acoustic traits in the landscape, also known as soundscape richness.

Limitations on applying Peircean semeiotic. Biosemiotics as applied objective ethics and esthetics rather than semeiotic. [PDF]
, 2005 This paper explores the critical conditions of such semiotic realism that is commonly presumed in the so-called Copenhagen interpretation of biosemiotics. The central task is to make basic biosemiotic concepts as clear as possible by applying C.S. Peirce’

Proceedings, 2022 Reconciling determinism with adaptability and resilience in the design of complex distributed system is a difficult task. In this paper, we argue that theoretical biology, especially biosemiotics and morphogenesis, gives a new perspective into this ...

The landscape is a trap: Duck decoys as multispecies atmospheres of deception and betrayal
Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, Volume 49, Issue 3, September 2024.Short Abstract Duck decoys are trapping devices set in a broader landscape designed to catch ducks. This is done through complex but ambiguous relationships of deception and betrayal involving ducks, dogs and decoymen. The ambiguity of duck decoys continues in new ways, as they are either used to monitor waterfowl biodiversity or preserved as heritage.

Music as Environment: An Ecological and Biosemiotic Approach
Behavioral Sciences, 2014 This paper provides an attempt to conceive of music in terms of a sounding environment. Starting from a definition of music as a collection of vibrational events, it introduces the distinction between discrete-symbolic representations as against analog-
