Hmm,
        "intereresting". I wonder what 'semiotic' Brian is thinking of. It's
interesting that he is still playing with the 'topological turn' and a kind
of abstract descriptive language that invokes no 'logic'. I'm not sure that
what he's writing about can happen without a semiotic of 'relations'. have
to ask him about this in sydney in a couple of wks. (I wonder when he thinks
'experience' was 'in us'....
