[Minimal designation of the thematized object], on the other hand, is defined only
by the schema of indexing [Entering of the minimal expression - standard form].

This little example shows how we tried to “marry” the seemingly very diverse
needs, e.g. the need to be able to carry out simple and swift analyses with the need to
be able to carry out in-depth, sophisticated analyses, tailored to specialized
objectives. The
ASW metalinguistic resources*
indeed enable us to specify and
develop descriptive models which comprise only one conceptual term, representing
only one type of object and whose description is reduced to the activity
[Minimal designation of the thematized object] in its simplified version - i.e. which
only require the analyst to fill in one field in order to complete the analysis. They
also enable us to develop highly sophisticated, “made-to-measure” models, passing
through a whole panoply of models nearer to such-and-such a documentary practice
or through descriptive models which rely on external references (standards, norms,
etc.).
In Figure 14.15, we can distinguish other collections of schemas of indexing. A
collection of schemas of indexing is specialized, for example, in
visual
or
acoustic
indexing
, i.e. in the use of a meta-iconography which represents (illustrates,
categorizes using a visual and/or acoustic “lexicon”) the content of an audiovisual
