Words inform us as to what our current thinking is, and those words are part of our semiotic. Our semiotic is the unspoken understanding of context.

Semiotics, the study of signs and symbols, examines how meaning is created and shared within a cultural context. It involves the mental study of signs and symbols and their meanings, the emotional interpretation that connects symbols to significance, and the physical observation or creation of signs that communicate messages within a shared environment.

Semiotics are not just to be observed — they are to be interacted with as the signs and symbols that shape how we connect and contribute meaningfully.

They bridge understanding, shaping how we communicate and collaborate.

They guide actions and align intentions in and out of the shared environments we’ve opted into.
