From Cybernetics to Cybersemiotics: The Quest for Meaning and Communication

In this article, we explore one of the contemporary developments of cybernetics by explaining the theoretical framework of cybersemiotics, a transdisciplinary theory of meaning, information, cognition and communication. We focused our attention on first and second-order cybernetics, autopoiesis theory, and Luhmann’s systems theory as conceptual foundations of cybersemiotics.
