The CODE-X series catalogs a vast codex of source codes (aka “signs”) extracted from past audits.
The object of study in semiotics is not the signs but rather a general theory of signification; the goal of each “audit” is to build a model demonstrating how meaning is produced and received within a category or cultural territory. Signs on their own, therefore, only become truly revelatory and useful once we’ve sorted them into thematic complexes, and the complexes into codes, and the codes into a meaning map. We call this process “thick description”; the Code-X series is thin description.
“IN YOUR HEAD” NORM: Your Pain Relief should be an empathetic reflection of who you are, what makes you tick.
“IN YOUR HEAD” FORMS: Dreamlike, playful, videogame and cartoon-influenced, emoticons. Very “millennial,” social-media cues. De-medicalized discourse. “Remove traffic, rain, and stress from your head.”
