IFM2022: Signs of Life: A Process Philosophy of Audible Semiotics by James Batcho

This presentation is part of the #IFM2022 Virtual Conference - June 8-10, 2022. Signs of Life A Process Philosophy of Audible Semiotics James Batcho Independent Scholar Abstract This essay advances an audible semiotics (hearing and listening) by challenging James Williams’ concept of signs in his book A Process Philosophy of Signs (2016). In it, Williams proposes that a sign exists due to, and as, its own intensive life. That is, he decouples consciousness from the semiotic relation in order to advance a materialist ontology. Through this thesis, Williams aims to move semiotic relations outside the limits of visual and linguistic thinking. In doing so, however, he has conflated two distinct activities—life and signs. This positions the sign on material grounds and thereby strips away the creative and interpretive element of ambiguity, which is vital to any theory of signs.
