1111 Of course, I must admit that my SVs may not be the right feature to label (symbola) what is being manifested by the emergence of time, space, energy, mass, and the fundaments of physics (SOi).
Let me put it the other way. If I simulate the expansion of the universe with time going backwards, then I am simulating a contraction that, after 13 billion years of shrinking, ends up with the entire universe contracting (backwards) into one point, which is called, by the calculating physicists, “the first singularity”. But, who knows what it is, because “the first singularity is just a label for this theoretical time-limit, which is so incredible, that within 10-19seconds, all the gluons and quarks2b and what they do2b constellates.
1112 The corresponding specifying sign-relation goes like this. The first 10-19 seconds in the expansion of the universe2a (SVs) stands for gluons and quarks2b (as matter) (SOs) in regards to the universe’s self-governance3boperating on potential courses of action1b (SIs).
Here is a picture.

1113 While it may seem that I have strayed far from the biosemiotic noumenal overlay, I have not. I am simply going through it using a geometric motif. The author suggests doing this. So, I I continue my path around the triangle.
1114 I have already rounded into Frege’s corner 2b, the situation-level actuality2b, called “information2b“.
Here is a list of configurations.

1115 The dyads are notable. The upper element is like Aristotle’s matter. The contiguity is like [substance]. The lower element is like Aristotle’s form.
The author says that before life, “potential meaning” is the thing itself. From prior examinations, I know that [message] is “potential sign” and [presence] is “potential meaning”. The first cosmic hierarchogenetic cycle, C1, exemplifies the lesson.
[Message] is the continuity between the manifestation of time, space, energy, laws and physical constants (SOi) and the first 10-19 seconds of the contraction point from a backwards simulation of the expansion of the universe (SVs).
[Presence] marks the contiguity between the appearance the most elementary forms within the expanding pinprick(now moving forwards in time in the simulation, SOs) and what they do (SVe).
1116 Next, information2b (SVe) stands for a goal2c (SOe) with respect to salience3c((1c)) (SIe).
In the exemplar sign-relation of C1, what gluons and quarks do2b (SVe) stands for elementary particle physics2c (SOe) in regards to the universal natural laws3c operating on the potential of these elementary forms1c (SIe).
1117 Here is a picture.

1118 Now, this exemplar sign-relation sounds perfectly circular. What the thing itself does (SVe) stands for what our model says it does (SOe) in regards to the laws that we program into our simulations3c operating on the data that we have observed and measured1c (SIe).
1119 I mean, like… how does a physicist even observe and measure an elementary particle like a gluon (the glue that holds quarks together)?
It cannot be easy. It must be so difficult as to require billions of (put in your favorite fiat currency) in order to fund even a small number of experiments. The apparatus may take years to build. No, it may take decades. So, few physicists will be able to replicate the conditions that go into each experiment. Unless, they spend billions of {put in your favorite fiat currency}.
Well, let me not dwell on that.
