Ontopoetics refers to the communicative engagement of self with the world and the world with the self.[1] It is also described as a "poetic order" that unfolds alongside the "causal order" in the process of the communicative engagement with reality.[2] It addresses the perception of cues or signals, or the expression of actors, as well as "the construction of impressions on re-actors by the deliberate choice of attractive signifiers that communicate factual or illusory realities"[3].

Concept

Ontopoetics is derived from the Greek words ontos ("that which is" - "I am" or "being") and poiesis ("coming into being" - creation" or "bringing forth").[4]
