Résumé

His presentation frames the bee dance as a definitive proof of the "Intelligence --> Text --> Machine --> System" framework, demonstrating that biology is a phenomenon of pre-existing information, not a product of material emergence. Presentation: The Dance of the BeesA Semiotic Event that Overthrows a ParadigmSlide 1: Introduction: Beyond InstinctThe bee dance is not a simple, evolved behavior. It is a Semiotic Event: the transmission of abstract, referential, and multidimensional information through a symbolic code.
It is "hereditary behavioral wisdom". In the terms of the New Biology, the bee dance is the execution of a high-tech "software program" that is pre-installed in the bee's genomic "hardware". This chapter analyzes the dance as definitive proof of the Intelligence ? Text ? Machine ? System architecture, refuting materialist paradigms. Slide 2: INTELLIGENCE: The Computational Mind of the HiveIndividual Intelligence: The scout bee performs complex calculations.
It computes distance, direction, and quality of a resource. It also performs a "risk-benefit analysis, " reducing the dance's intensity if a predator is nearby. Collective Intelligence: The hive itself operates as a "distributed information processing system". Multiple "proposals" (dances for different locations) compete for the attention of forager bees. This leads to a "collective decision-making" process that optimizes the colony's resource allocation.
Slide 3: TEXT: A Formal Language of Code and SymbolThe dance is a true language with defined syntax and semantics. Syntax (Rule 1) - Direction:The bee performs a "remarkable conceptual transposition". It translates the angle of the food source relative to the Sun into an angle relative to the force of Gravity on the dark, vertical honeycomb. This relationship ("up" = "direction of the sun") is "chemically arbitrary and purely conventional".
It is the "indelible mark of an informational system, " not a physical necessity. Syntax (Rule 2) - Distance:Distance is encoded as the temporal duration of the "waggle phase" (e.g., 1 second = 750-1000 meters). This is not a simple time/distance calculation. The bee computes the "optical flow" (the apparent movement of scenery across its retina) and integrates this data over time-a true "computational algorithm".
Semantics (Meaning) - Quality:The value of the resource is communicated through the intensity, speed, and repetition of the dance. This is supplemented with chemical data: the dancer provides samples of the nectar for taste and smell. Slide 4: MACHINE: The Biological DecodersThe "Text" of the dance requires "Machines" to read, interpret, and execute it. The Forager Bee as a "Machine":The other bees are the decoders.
They "read the 'Text'"  in total darkness, translating the angles and durations into precise flight coordinates. They are "living cartographers"  executing the instructions provided by the scout. The Bee's Nervous System as a "Machine":The bee's brain contains a "chronocompass" -an internal clock that compensates for the sun's movement. A bee that decodes a dance hours after the scout's return will still fly in the correct direction by adjusting the sun's angle.
This confirms the bee is not just mimicking; it is performing a complex, time-compensated calculation.
