Semiotics

Semantics: Relation between signs and the things to which they refer; their denotata



Syntactics: Relation of signs to each other in formal structures


Pragmatics: Relation of signs to their impacts on those who use them


Semiotics is frequently seen as having important anthropological dimensions, for example Umberto Eco proposes that every cultural phenomenon can be studied as communication. However, some semioticians focus on the logical dimensions of the science. They examine areas belonging also to the natural sciences - such as how organisms make predictions about, and adapt to, their semiotic niche in the world (see semiosis). In general, semiotic theories take signs or sign systems as their object of study: the communication of information in living organisms is covered in biosemiotics or zoosemiosis.

We have been recording a jingle for our radio show. To help us with this, we have listened to many previous radio shows to help us get some ideas together. We have also found a website called Mister Bo Jingle which provides songs to use for making jingles which is free to download. Our show is 20 minutes long, so therefore we have set up a timeline to give us an idea what we will putting on our show such as a quiz, songs and discussing subjects that will interest our a type of audience.
