Pragmatic Semiotic Information • 3 • https://inquiryintoinquiry.com/2024/03/05/pragmatic-semiotic-information-3/ All, Where is information bred? In reality or in its stead? The way signs enter the scene is shown in Figure 2. Pragmatic Semiotic Information • Figure 2 • https://inquiryintoinquiry.files.wordpress.com/2024/03/pragmatic-semiotic-i… The Figure illustrates a scene of uncertainty which has been augmented by a classification. In the pattern of classification shown the first three outcomes fall under the sign “A” and the next two outcomes fall under the sign “B”. • If the outcomes are things potentially true of an object or situation then the signs may be read as nomens (terms) or notions (concepts) in a relevant empirical or theoretical scheme, in effect, as predicates and predictors of the outcomes. • If the outcomes are things potentially worth doing to achieve a goal then the signs may be read as bits of advice or other indicators telling us what actions to try in a situation, relative to our active goals. This will give us a practical framework for talking about information and signs in regard to communication, decision, and the uncertainties thereof.
