I just came across Denis Beaubois, an Australian multidisciplinary artist whose work, Currency - Division of Labor might be of interest to researchers here.

The story of the Triage  via a stream of consciousness .

To touch lives I am driven by a doctrine of difference. As a theatre teacher, I  wish to  enable students to rethink, reform revise and reshape places and spaces.  To emancipate the spectator,  aid the viewer  and veer  from veneration of the word, I seek to liberate  textural idolatry by the devising process,   initiation into the polysemic language of the dramaturge. My task is  to remove  the  blindfold from Turtles.

Eventually, a means to loosen  cultural binds,  to restore  a metaphorical tower of Babble I use  spatial typography as  the realm of the Trinity of the Triage. 

 (Semiotics, Prosodics and Proxemics)

 

The Triage enables theatre students to discover their own potency. Then,  to  liberate  their own thoughts from the habitual.  In turn, to  to emancipate the spectator, the viewer,  the  spectator, to  feel comfortable sculpting space as the visual narrative in this mufti-sensory world. Emancipation through initiation into the Polysemic language of devising as a dramaturge.

Thus, on this mental cleansing day, I spew my vulgarities onto a digital page. Facilitating the devising process, I  aspire for compelling presentations, and performances to become the norm, to devise stage topography as an Ensemble ‘Transceiver’.  Creation of a vibrant theatrical milieu, where encoded meaning articulates  mood, emotion, attitude, bias and intent, through polysemy. Silent utterances of an image-laden landscape created by the Triage.  Reification to reality through practical application of  the IB Theatre story teller’s ‘sextant'.

The Triage is a point and shoot twin of a nautical sextant, a kind of young theatre student's Swiss Army knife. It allows the theatrical explorer to arrive at fresh perceptions of reality. We guide others to fresh perceptions navigating by our own, non magnetic North.  A practical form of mental freedom fighting,  quietly consuming the consumer's thoughts processes.

Shamelessly devising places where process and products of human ingenuity collide matters.  Hence the skills tool. A means to construct, where we are, where we want to be and ways to get there. Enter introduction of the  triage.

Often young theatre student commence  the devising process with an obscured horizon. We  needed a means  to chart journeys initiated  by location of our own non magnetic north.

 Thus, the  trinity of the Triage

1. Prosody, (vocal utterances) attitudinal intonation of vocal patterns that deliver information about the meaning behind the utterance.   (Pike1945)

2. Semiotics, behavioral signs and signifiers (F, Saussure)

3. Proxemics,  (Hall 1963) spatial relationships to enable theatre students to reform, reshape, revise and reinvent a stage picture,  a means to put 'fizz into the Mizz (en  Scene)

The Triage , designed to beguile the spectator from multiple viewpoints. Social commentary from a transceivers perspective.

For those interested, a little more insight offered in part two.
