Like 'emic' and
'etic', both words appear to be derived from a suffix,
-poietic (from Greek: ποιητικός "creative") meaning productive or
formative and -esthesic (from αἴσθησις "sense") being receptive
or perceptive, in relation to the neutral level. The neutral level is
the "trace" left behind, the physical or material creation of esthesic
and poietic processes.

Thus, "a symbolic form... is not some
'intermediary' in a process
of 'communication' that transmits the meaning intended by the
author to the audience; it is instead the result of a complex
process of creation (the poietic process) that has to do with the
form as well as the content of the work; it is also the point of
departure for a complex process of reception (the esthesic
process) that reconstructs a 'message.'" (Nattiez1990, p. 17)

now, these are the fragments, before the birth of concepts
