Inner Speech and the Linguistic Sign: Toward a Quantum Semiology
Gordon Globus
DOI: 254
Abstract
A neuroquantological account of inner speech and the linguistic sign is proposed. Inner
speech, meaning, and thought are defined and located in the theoretical structure of
dual mode quantum thermofield brain dynamics. Other‐action (sensory input from the
environment and the body) and self‐action (self‐tuning signals generated by the brain
itself) are distinguished. Being (presencing) is disclosed in the “between‐two” of dual
thermofield modes making a match. The link between the signifier aspect and the
signified aspect of the semiological sign is that of superposition. In communication the
signifier is used to evoke its entangled signified. The extent to which communication is
successful depends on similar self‐actions and attunements within linguistic
communities. The discussion supports the extension of neuroquantology to semiology
