COSMIC ANTIMATTER. “Antiprotons have also been found to exist in the Van Allen Belts around the Earth by the PAMELA module.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimatter View in LinkedIn
UNIQUENESS. “We could thus ask: If this is true, could the converse not also be true? Could “lower” life forms not also have communication type capacities? Are our cognitive capacities so unique?” https://lnkd.in/dATmMuTJ View in LinkedIn
ANTIMATTER ON EARTH. “Many different kinds of antiparticles are also produced by (and contained in) cosmic rays. In January 2011, research by the American Astronomical Society discovered antimatter (positrons) originating above thunderstorm clouds; positrons are produced in terrestrial gamma-ray flashes created by electrons accelerated by strong electric fields in the clouds.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimatter View in LinkedIn
PRODUCTS OF BIOLOGY. “One of the -- disturbing -- findings of biosemiotics is that the more we know about biology the more that we understand that the supposedly higher functions of humans (creativity, faith, understanding, language) are (also) biological in nature.” https://lnkd.in/dATmMuTJ View in LinkedIn
RADIOACTIVE DECAY. “Positrons are produced naturally in β+ decays of naturally occurring radioactive isotopes (for example, potassium-40) and in interactions of gamma quanta (emitted by radioactive nuclei) with matter. Antineutrinos are another kind of antiparticle created by natural radioactivity (β− decay).” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimatter View in LinkedIn
RELATIONALITY. “Knowledge “is constructed relationally, which is why it is relative. It is constructed in relationship with an Other, be that Other a physical, or material , or biological, or social, or cultural other. Life is as much constructed as it is constructing.” https://lnkd.in/dATmMuTJ View in LinkedIn
MISSION CRITICAL. “If a living organism’s interpretation of the sensory environment is wrong, its survival is threatened.” https://lnkd.in/dATmMuTJ View in LinkedIn
BELL CURVE. “Human semiosis is to be conceptualized and understood in a continuum with other forms of semiosis.” https://lnkd.in/dATmMuTJ View in LinkedIn
INTER- AND INTRA-COMMUNICATION. “Furthermore, individual organisms communicate with others in their species but also with others from other species.” https://lnkd.in/dATmMuTJ View in LinkedIn
THE BEGINNINGS. “When prokaryotic cells gave up their individuality in order to live in organisms, endosemiosis (communication between cells in an organism) started. “ https://lnkd.in/dATmMuTJ View in LinkedIn
