Kelly, list,

This may not be the kind of thing you are looking for, but my open-access book 
Turning Signs <https://gnusystems.ca/TS/>  (currently only published at that 
link) cross-correlates Peircean semeiotics with a broad range of fields within 
science and philosophy. For an example (which may be unique), it extrapolates 
from Peirce's concept of “logical energy” to what i call “semiotic energy,” and 
relates this to the analysis of biophysical energy flows which is central to 
the science of ecology. It draws upon Howard Odum's (2007) concepts of emergy 
and transformity <https://gnusystems.ca/TS/plx.htm#trnsfmty>  to illuminate 
ecological dimensions of Peircean information 
<https://gnusystems.ca/TS/cls.htm#CSPinfo> . The book (netbook, as i call it) 
is published online under a Creative Commons license and can be searched for 
key terms such as those mentioned above.

On the more academic side, Adrian Ivakhiv 
<https://www.sfu.ca/globalhumanities/human-dir/faculty/a-ivakhiv/>  has also 
applied Peircean ideas to his studies of cultural ecologies and the roles of 
media in them, including Shadowing the Anthropocene: Eco-Realism for Turbulent 
Times (2018).

Subject: [PEIRCE-L] Applications and direct influences of Peirce's thought?

 

Hello list—

I’m currently working on an overview of Peirce’s work, and want to include an 
account of important later developments and applications of his thought. The 
kind of thing I have in mind are direct applications of Peirce’s ideas, such as 
John Sowa’s conceptual graphs. 

I’m interested learning about direct applications of Peirce in any field. I’ll 
also appreciate references to any published documentation of the connection(s) 
to Peirce. Thanks much!
