Semiotics theory is the study of signs and symbols, for the purpose of meaning-making. The study
primarily focuses on elements of language or other systems of communication. It is also important to
note that although the theory may seem to have similarity with Semiology, they are different in that
semiotics traditionally explores anthropological aspects. The main principle used is that meaning is
made by the deployment of commonly known acts and objects which function as "signs" in relation to
other signs. Systems of signs are constituted by the complex meaning-relations that can exist between
one sign and another.
The author speaks about three separate analytical strategies for selecting and
using stimulus texts in semiotic analytics. Different strategies normally imply different research designs,
interview protocols and criteria of analyzing the data. When we use stimulus texts as clues, we build the
interview experience so that the texts, together with the interview side inquiries. He also outlines the
usage of semiotic tools appropriately in the deconstruction of signs.

Today, with major technological advancements having been made in the communication industry,
semiotics plays even a much bigger role. With the continued rapid development of social networking
applications and sites, for the past two decades. The world has seen the rise of some trends, in regards
to online communication. These so-called trends can all be viewed from a symbolic perspective. Trends
like; emojis, memes, gifs, vines, hashtags amongst others all carry meanings and in this essay, I will
expound their relevance from a professional standpoint.
The book the author has discussed the various standpoints for studying communication since these
theories are mutually relevant when addressed to a practical real-world. He shows that no active field

inquiry has a fully unified theory. A perfectly coherent field would be seen as being too static but the
practice of communication is very much alive (Craig, 1999).
