Daniel Speers

Semiotics is the study or the science of signs and sign systems of all kinds. It involves the creation of signs; communicating through sign; the forming of signs into codes; the social function of signs; the meaning of signs. In a way we are all students of semiotics because it applies to all areas of culture and human beings can not escape its grasp regardless of where they are in the world. The most interesting part of semiotics to me is the complexity of the message. Denotation and Connotation work together to find the literal meanings and the implied meanings that must be discovered through interpretation.
