A nice summary. I would like to note that the Darwin 'tree' shown in
'Exploration of Diagrams' is not a summary of patterns. Rather, an
evolutionary tree, or cladogram, is an abductively-derived set of
explanatory hypotheses implied by those diagrams. The patterns that
prompt our inferences of phylogenetic hypotheses in the form of
evolutionary trees are the differentially-shared characters we observe
among various organisms.

List,
Thank you, Gary F., for sharing the blog post and the diagrams. I'd
like to share a diagram that Terry Moore and I have put together.
It is designed to illustrate the same basic relationships--but with a
bit more detail. We are using it to clarify the goals of a
collaborative research project called Abductive Pathways for Emerging
Research Ideas (APERI) involving philosophers and scientists. Let me
know if you think anything in the diagram is unclear or seems out of
place. Here is a link to the website I'm building to help support the
collaborative research:

About - Abductive Pathways
<https://sites.google.com/site/abductivepathways/about>
sites.google.com
The APERI project started as a component of the Scalable Peirce
Interpretation Network (SPIN) efforts. Over time, we've seen that it
was a bit confusing for some people, so we've given the two efforts
separate names in order to make the aims clearer. The SPIN project
seeks to transcribe and interpret the archival collection of Peirce's
unpublished manuscripts. The APERI project seeks to promote
collaborative research between philosophers and researchers working in
the special sciences. Our hope is that each project will inform and
help to inspire the other.

List,
My blog post today is close enough to this subject that I should post
this link to it:
http://gnusystems.ca/wp/2016/09/thirdness-and-the-meaning-cycle/
I’m not copying it to the list because it’s so linked in to its
context and the diagrams in /Turning Signs/ that you can only read it
properly with a browser anyway. You can also read it at
http://gnusystems.ca/TS/ldm.htm#bring2 if you’re interested.
