Figure 1: Here a dog stepped in paint and left traces on the cement–not a complete thought.
Figure 2: Peirce: There are three types of sign (at one stage in his thinking, at least). Icons are those signs who relate to their object by having some sort of likeness. An arrow is like an arrow. Indices are those signs whose relationship to their objects consists in some sort of factual, brute correspondence (e.g., a weathercock indicating the direction of the wind). Symbols are signs whose relationship to their objects are somehow inferred or “imputed”. Peirce says “symbols grow”. I like to think of symbols as those signs which, like us (we thinking beings), are themselves beings thinking. City Council likely did not anticipate this.
Sounds
Figure 3: You can hear ground works interrupted by unplanned fallen leaves.
Figure 4: You can hear the frantic dance of stepping in something ikky by accident.
Images
Figure 5: You can see some large pawprints left in the cement here. They almost blend with the shadows of dampness and divots in the surface.
Figure 6: A tiny patch of new cement. You can imagine how easy it was not to notice it. Some human and some bird crossed here (at different times?).
