Claudia Jacques applies cybersemiotic theory to Marcel Duchamp's concept of the Creative Act, arguing that artworks function as feedback loops between artist and spectator that transform meaning through interaction rather than through authorial intent alone. Her work bridges cybernetics and art history by positioning Duchamp's ideas about incompleteness and viewer participation as proto-cybernetic systems, where the artwork becomes a medium for mutual transformation between human and observer. This framework allows the seminar to theorize how feedback, purpose, and meaning-making operate across aesthetic and technical systems simultaneously.
