Indeed, with the distinction which we draw, in terms of the
functional
architecture
of a working form, between the
global sequence
and
specialized sub-
sequences
, it is entirely possible to create forms of referential description which
integrate the constraints such as those we have just enumerated.
Thus, Figure 8.6 shows the example of a functional architecture of interactive
forms for describing audiovisual content which takes account of the fact that certain
conceptual terms (called
dependent conceptual terms
) can only be selected by the
analyst if certain other conceptual terms (called
presupposed conceptual terms
) have
already been selected.
Figures 8.7 and 8.8 show an extract from the interface of a form for analyzing
the audiovisual content relating to the domain of knowledge entitled
Culturalconstruct, era and society
. It enables the analysis of any audiovisual text
which deals with any cultural construct (tangible culture, intangible culture, political
culture, social culture, linguistic culture, etc.):
- “as such” (e.g. as a
de-contextualized
object of research or reflection);
- in relation to a given historical era or civilization;
