HIGHER FUNCTIONS. “A consensus is growing in cognitive ethnology that there is “a continuity between cognition and communication in humans and other animals.” https://lnkd.in/dATmMuTJ View in LinkedIn

THE DANCE IS THE MUSIC. “Even in human beings, meaning-making is not primarily about logical play but about grounded responses to the “Other”, the environment. This does not mean that there is no play, just that there is more than play.” https://lnkd.in/dATmMuTJ View in LinkedIn

ROOTED IN BIOLOGY. “Biosemiotics argue that meaning-making is not a purely logical system of differences at play, but part of the tools that have evolved to assist organisms to survive and adapt.” https://lnkd.in/dATmMuTJ View in LinkedIn

BOTTOM UP. “As Deacon puts it eloquently: “ Minds were not somehow grafted onto biological systems; mentality emerged from and grew out of organisms during their evolution.” https://lnkd.in/dATmMuTJ View in LinkedIn

RELATEDNESS. “One of the key tenets of biosemiotic thinking is the unity of life...all life has a common ancestor and no living organism, no matter how far evolved (like humans) stops being a biological entity.” https://lnkd.in/dATmMuTJ View in LinkedIn

HIGH ENERGY ANTIMATTER. “Cosmic ray antiprotons also have a much higher energy than their normal-matter counterparts (protons). They arrive at Earth with a characteristic energy maximum of 2 GeV, indicating their production in a fundamentally different process from cosmic ray protons, which on average have only one-sixth of the energy.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimatter View in LinkedIn

INSTINCT VS REASON. “One needs to rethink the notion of instinct. In particular, the notion that animals act on instinct and humans in reason needs to be reconceptualized to allow for “instinct” in humans and “reason” in non-human living organisms.” https://lnkd.in/dATmMuTJ View in LinkedIn

SPACE WEATHER. “The former ejection of matter in the outer shock wave and the latter production of antimatter in the reverse shock wave are steps in a space weather cycle.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimatter View in LinkedIn

DECEIT. “Further proof of animal’s semiotic ability is their ability to deceive.” https://lnkd.in/dATmMuTJ View in LinkedIn

PULSAR FORCES. “This weathering takes place as "the cold, magnetized relativistic wind launched by the star hits the non-relativistically expanding ejecta, a shock wave system forms in the impact: the outer one propagates in the ejecta, while a reverse shock propagates back towards the star." https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimatter View in LinkedIn
