ONT Re: Extension x Comprehension = Information
¤~~~~~~~~~¤~~~~~~~~~¤~~~~~~~~~¤~~~~~~~~~¤~~~~~~~~~¤
Let me pause just a moment to knock out
a couple of quick sketches of how I see
the scene that Peirce is depicting here.
Here is the rougher draft of the two, a diptych impaneled of
an object fold and a sign fold, an interpretant being, after
all, just another passing moment in the life cycle of a sign,
and so there is an object o, with its intensions p through q,
collectively constellating the comprehension of any sign s_k,
above the instances, instantiations, or instants i through j
of the object o, aggregatively constituting the extension of
any sign s_k that is said to denote o or its plurality below.

I should mention, in no uncertain terms, that Peirce's present account
does not yet count this "abstract hypostasis" or "hypostatic object" o
in any explicit way, though I think it is inherent in the very form of
his thinking. So let us keep an eye out, as we proceed with the story,
for when, if ever, this particular character first treads on the scene.
For future reference, I will go ahead and post here this advance notice
of what may well be the next stage in the developmental differentiation
of this, my embyronic autopoetics, but let's just see what we shall see.

One key to the unintentional mystery that I might share:
The acronymphic "pomps" is for "pressence on my psyche".
