Structural coupling and the origin of meaning in a simple cellular automata, in: Secarz,

This is a short paper discussing the notion of semiotic process at the cellular level in
terms of operational closure and coupling. The core of this paper is a presentation of the
'Bittorio' cellular automaton example, which can be found in "The Embodied Mind" (Varela,
Thompson & Rosch, 1991).
