Howard wrote Statements (021715-1) and (021715-3) which seem to me

as 'semiosis':
HP: Yes. I was focusing one aspect -- the syntactic communication of
information. All other aspects of interpretation must take place
before and after information enters this physical communication
channel. That isolation of interpretation is why this aspect of
communication works so well.
Sung: No communication/discussion/semiosis is possible without all
of the three kinds of the sign-object relations. . . which contrasts
with the following statement:
HP: "At this level I see no reason to introduce indices and icons."
HP: That is correct, only I should have stated the point more
forcefully: At this level -- the physical communication of
information -- any introduction of semantics by icons, indices, or
interpretation of any kind (beyond the syntactic communication rules)
would distort the message being communicated.
