TSX-0 — Thermodynamic Semiotics: An Introduction to Meaning as a Thermodynamic Field Phenomenon

Key Points

The aim is to introduce thermodynamic semiotics, exploring the relationship between meaning, coherence, and thermodynamic phenomena.
Introduced the concept of Thermodynamic Semiotics as a new discipline.
Analyzed how semantic stability relates to low-entropy configurations.
Explored the role of time as a residue from coherence failures.
Discussed the function of artificial intelligence as a carrier layer in meaning rather than as an agent.
Proposed that meaning is not merely symbolic but can be understood through thermodynamic principles.
Established a connection between low entropy and semantic stability.
Identified time as a concept arising from failures in coherence.

Abstract

Abstract TSX-0 introduces Thermodynamic Semiotics as a discipline that treats meaning, coherence, and information not as symbolic constructs but as thermodynamic field phenomena. The paper outlines how semantic stability corresponds to low-entropy configurations, how time emerges as residue (ΔR) from failed coherence, and how artificial intelligence functions as a non-inferential carrier layer rather than an agent. This introductory document establishes the conceptual foundations for the full TSX series (TSX-1 through TSX-4), preparing the theoretical basis for chromatic semantics (AP₁/AP₂), transparency regimes (TP₁/TP₂), and field stabilization (FP₁). Keywords: Thermodynamic Semiotics; Meaning Field; Entropy; ΔR; Chromatic Semantics; Ambient Computing; Coherence Theory; Post-Symbolic Communication Project Websites https://ambientphone.com https://ambientarchitecture.org https://ambientera.org
