Neutral level
In semiotics the neutral level of a sign is the "trace" left behind, the physical or material creation or remains of esthesic and poietic processes, levels, and analyses of symbolic forms. A part of all signs according to a tripartitional definition, it corresponds to Saussure's "sound-image" (or "signified", thus Pierce's "representamen").
