Autopoietic enactivism (AE) and biosemiotics are two alternative frameworks in cognitive science and biology, respectively, that share theoretical overlap but have had little exchange. This paper proposes a novel synthesis called biosemiotic enactivism, which aims to clarify and strengthen key AE concepts by drawing from both fields. The main goals are to propose a new conception of cognition to advance AE's theoretical development and to introduce biosemiotic ideas to the enactive community to stimulate cross-field debate.
