2 and 3 have experienced something they can graduate internally but cannot express,
but Actor 4 lacks the experience that even allows identification of the dimension.
The actors are now exposed to the second object, Circle Music. A similar process
of adaption takes place. Owing to the fact that Actors 1, 2 and 3 have one item
of prior experience they can now compare that emotional effect with the effect of
object two on an identified dimension. This gives them a better and a subtler means
of communication in that they can convey internal comparisons.
To represent the experience of attending a concert (event 1) we instruct our model
through queries. Note that all interactions are called “queries” in the schematic
functional programming language 'Clarity' from which the modal was constructed.

Each actor, knowing its own response to the objects, then modifies its initial neutral assess-
ment of others' views. The function 'show_views' displays all actors' perception of other
actors for all objects. For clarity we have graphed the results. Since this is the view of Actor
1 concerning the others we have also dropped its view for simplicity (Fig.
