Description

Illustrations of two perspectives on semiotics are shown. The top image (A) represents a dyadic perspective that originated with Saussure. The bottom image (B) represents a triadic perspective that originated with Peirce.
The triadic semiotic frame suggests models that treat cognition as a function that is distributed over an agent and its ecology.
The triadic model uses a tuning-fork metaphor whereby learning is seen as a resonance or coordination of internal structure (e.g., associa- tions in a neural network) with external structure (e.g., physical or social events; E. Gibson, 1969; Rumelhart & McClelland, 1986). This model provides a frame to ask how a cockpit remembers rather than how a pilot remembers (Hutchins, 1995b).
