In order to understand the school of semiotics, I created a semiotic mind map.

This blog is a collection of thoughts, ideas and iterations in my exploration of the 'floating signifier' - a agency for the Australia Government set in virtual space by digital technologies.

"to decline the study of signs is to leave to others the control of the world of meaning which we inhabit"

D. Chandler

Project Question:

What would virtual space be like?

How can it be thought?

How can it be realised?

Can the ways in which we conceive and occupy space be reconsidered to express meaning at the current speed of cultural change?

Is it possible to Re - think or Re - invent space in terms of the basic ontology of indeterminacy?

Project Proposal:

Design a Virtual Australian Parliament that is grounded in the characteristics of indeterminacy and generated with digital technologies. Produce an architecture that does not contain or legitimise an already given or embodied sign system, where form and space could be proposed from an idea that lies within a fluid process of becoming and duration, and of space and time.
