A unique account of the state of art of both theoretical and modelistic issues in the present-day research on Epistemic Complexity ·         Focuses on entropy, algorithmic complexity, self-referentiality, teleonomical processes and symbolic dynamics. ·         Discusses cellular automata, self-organization theory, biological computing, non standard models  and the emergence of meaning in knowledge construction. Pace Kant, at the level of a biological cognitive system sensibility is not a simple interface between absolute  chance and an invariant intellectual order. On the contrary, the reference procedures, if successful, are able to modulate canalization and create the basis for the appearance of ever-new frames of incompressibility through morphogenesis. This is not a question of discovering and directly exploring (according, for instance, to Putnam’s conception) new “territories”, but of offering ourselves as the matrix and arch through which they can spring autonomously in accordance with ever increasing
