Karl and Javier for your support to that systemic approach. <br>
“A set of elements linked by a set of relations” is indeed a simple model leading to a wide usage. Beyond applications to animals, humans and artificial agents, the proposed approach to meaning generation introduces agency, autonomy and entry points to a-biotic

<div>Dear Colleagues,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>First and foremost, thank you Karl for the synthesis. I like this definition of meaning very much, because of its transdisciplinary potential, so to speak. For instance, semantic meaning can also be described in these very same terms. Speech acts (using
a philosophical analytic concept, though without the intention to restrict us to this school of thought) take place in sociolinguistic contexts, which are nothing but systemic constraints. These constraints reduce ambiguity and therefore become meaningful,
that is, they allow us to focus social action and communication with regard to their most plausible continuations. And continuation, as the concept of autopoiesis has taught us, is vital for the self-conservation of the system.

a meaningful information that is created by a system submitted to a constraint when it receives an incident information that has a connection with the constraint. The meaning is formed of the connection existing between the received information and the constraint
of the system. The function of the meaningful information is to participate to the determination of an action that will be implemented in order to satisfy the constraint of the system”. This definition of a meaning tells what the meaning is and what the meaning

wise.)<span></span></span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="line-height:107%">The concept of the meaning that there is something that an occurrence refers to, is in relation with. In Christophe’s example above, the change in properties oft he surroundings of the assembly (a drop of
acid into the habitat) refers to a physiological – ideal – state which has been changed.
