o be. precisely the things I care most about right now in the making of
art. Maybe. somebody could propose a new nonlinear model of
semiotics or better a. chaotic one that would extend the field into a
place that might be. interesting. But Eco's views on language are too
restrictive for me and. don't carry me to the places I want to go.
Greimas deals with a much. wider range of issues than semiotics in his
work and I prefer him to Eco.. Even so there is still much in the making
of art that Greimas doesn't take. into account. (Not that I can recall
anything specifically that I could. critique off the top of my pointy little
head. . .) Linguistics still only. skims the surface of art's deepest
concerns so I guess the question is. should an artist be content with
merely skimmed surfaces Or should he dive. headlong into the deep
waters where theories fear to tread I guess some of. us are Ahabs and
some of us are Ishmaels. I favor the crazy Ahab impulse. speaking for
myself despite my wooden leg. I am taking a breather here. let others
get into the conversation if they wish. Feel free to tear me to. noemata.
