I am assuming that you'd agree that a 'sub-culture' such as Harry Potter or Star Wars fan communities in a sense are social semiotic systems. I've been reading your 1984 monograph, and I am struggling to understand what the nature of "the resources that exits in a relatively high state of structural order", which the sub-culture 'extracts' from its environment, could be? And conversely, what are the lower order 'waste products' of such a sub-culture? I'm not being antagonistic or anything, I'm honestly trying to understand how your thoughts on complex ecosemiotic systems map onto your points here.<br /><br />Kind regards,<br />Christian (Denmark)christianmosbaekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13886846042960831260noreply@blogger.com
