-I don't know if this will be of much use to us, but I found it quite interesting
This is a system for dividing symbolic (textual) interpretations into three distinct iconic meanings (from "Beyond Role and Play"):
1. Imaginisation - the player fills in the information gaps using his/her own imagination.
2. Diagrammatisation - the symbol is interpreted systematically and logically (no information is added by imagining) .
3. Allegorisation - The obvious is ignored and the symbol is interpreted as a metaphor.
These categories are perhaps applicable to other types of symbolic communications (other than textual) and might be of some help.
