Want to learn semiotic theory as an absolute beginner? Want to hear semiotics explained simply and logically? Semiotics can feel like a complex and hard subject, but it shouldn't be. In this video series we'll explore and explain what semiotics is all about in an understandable and simple way. The video series is intended for absolute beginners and is a crash course to semiotic theory and Peircean semiotics.

First on the list is the First Correlate asking the question: what is the sign in itself. The sign can be:
(1) Qualisign
(2) Sinsign
(3) Legisign

Try to spot these kinds of signs in your experience.
What is singular and forceful in your experince? Certain sound, distinct smell or visible object? That is a Sinsign.

Every experienced Sinsign embodies necessarily some qualities. When concentrating on these qualities the sign is functioning as a Qualisign.

The Sinsign could also be an instance of some law, rule, convention or habit. In that case it would function also as a Legisign and be an instance of it.

The video series is intended for beginners and is a crash course to semiotic theory and Peircean semiotics.
