How Body and Soul Interact with the Spiritual Mind: Multimodal Cognitive Semiotics of Religious Discourse
2008
Cognitive Linguistics as an enterprise provides new theoretical and methodological instruments in understanding the relationship between people's thoughts and the language they use. Spiritual and religious experiences (particularly the ones involving some type of revelation from or communication with a transcendent being) are especially interesting since they involve some type of external, physically invisible force or agent, contributing an "ineffable" quality to the phenomenon. However, people can and do describe such events, and metaphors and blends pervade the representations of certain concepts of the transcendental when attempting to talk about such abstract ideas. One of the main ten…

Ģeometrisko zīmju un to uztveres semiotiska analīze latviešu zīmolos
2016
Ģeometriskās zīmes bieži tiek izmantotas zīmolvedībā un šķiet esam daļa no arhetipiska koda kultūras mantojuma pamatā, kas veido identitāti, tādēļ šī pētījuma mērķis ir izpētīt ģeometriskā raksta lomu valodas fenomenoloģijā, aprakstīt to kā zīmju sistēmu un veikt kvalitatīvu desmit Latvijas zīmolu, kuru logotipos ietvertas ģeometriskas zīmes, uztveres analīzi, lai noteiktu, ciktāl grafiskās zīmes iemieso zīmola vēstījumu saskaņā ar zīmolvedības, apziņas un modelēšanas sistēmu, kā arī ģeometriskā raksta un krāsu koda teorijām un interpretācijām. Zīmolu un pilotaptaujā iegūto datu semiotiska analīze liecina, ka ģeometriskās zīmes rosina daudzslāņainu sarunu par zīmola vēstījumu balstītu zīmes…
Simplicity and the art of something more: A cognitive-semiotic approach to simplicity and complexity in human-technology interaction and design exper…
2018
In human–technology interaction, the balance between simplicity and complexity has been much discussed. Emphasis is placed on the value of simplicity when designing for usability. Often simplicity is interpreted as reductionism, which compromises both the affective nature of the design and usability itself. This paper takes a cognitive–semiotic approach toward understanding the dynamics between the utilitarian benefits of simplicity in design and the art of something more: considerate complexity. The cognitive–semiotic approach to human–technology design experience is a vehicle for explaining the relationship between simplicity and complexity, and this relationship’s multisensory character …
