Abstract:
1. A readerboard system, comprising: a readerboard, including: a first panel element, wherein the first the first panel element is a substantially planar panel, wherein a top edge of the first panel element is placed in a first channel of the first track of the readerboard, wherein a bottom edge of the first panel element is placed in a first channel of the second track of the readerboard, wherein the first panel element includes first and second side edges, wherein a first semiotic element that extends to at least a portion of the bottom edge and to at least a portion of the second side edge of the first panel element is formed on a first surface of the first panel element, wherein at least a portion of the first semiotic element that extends to the bottom edge of the first panel element underlies a portion of the second track of the readerboard, and wherein the first semiotic element includes a first portion of a first graphical image; a second panel element, wherein the second panel element is a substantially planar panel, wherein a top edge of the second panel element is placed in a second channel of the second track of the readerboard, wherein a bottom edge of the second panel element is placed in a first channel of the third track of the readerboard, wherein the second panel element includes first and second side edges, wherein a second semiotic element that extends to at least a portion of the top edge and to at least a portion of the second side edge of the second panel element is formed on a first surface of the second panel element, wherein at least a portion of the second semiotic element that extends to the top edge of the second panel element underlies a portion of the second track of the readerboard, wherein the second semiotic element includes a second portion of the first graphical image, and wherein the top edge of the second panel element is adjacent the bottom edge of the first panel element; a third panel element, wherein the third panel element is a substantially planar panel, wherein a top edge of the third panel element is placed in the first channel of the first track of the readerboard, wherein a bottom edge of the third panel element is placed in the first channel of the second track of the readerboard, wherein the third panel element includes first and second side edges, wherein the third panel element is placed in the readerboard such that the first side edge of the third panel element is adjacent the second side edge of the first panel element, wherein a third semiotic element that extends to at least a portion of the bottom edge and to at least a portion of the first side edge of the third panel element is formed on a first surface of the third panel element, wherein at least a portion of the third semiotic element that extends to the bottom edge of the third panel element underlies a portion of the second track of the readerboard, and wherein the third semiotic element includes a third portion of the first graphical image; a fourth panel element, wherein the fourth panel element is a substantially planar panel, wherein a top edge of the fourth panel element is placed in the second channel of the second track of the readerboard, wherein a bottom edge of the fourth panel element is placed in the first channel of the third track of the readerboard, wherein the fourth panel element includes first and second side edges, wherein the fourth panel element is placed in the readerboard such that the first side edge of the fourth panel element is adjacent the second side edge of the second panel element, wherein a fourth semiotic element that extends to at least a portion of the top edge and to at least a portion of the first side edge of the fourth panel element is formed on a first surface of the fourth panel element, wherein the fourth semiotic element includes a fourth portion of the first graphical image, wherein at least a portion of the fourth semiotic element that extends to the top edge of the fourth panel element underlies a portion of the second track of the readerboard, and wherein the top edge of the fourth panel element is adjacent the bottom edge of the third panel element, wherein the first, second, third, and fourth semiotic elements are complementary such that they combine to form a complete first graphical image, wherein the first and second panel elements and the first and second semiotic elements are separated from one another by at least a first portion of the second track of the readerboard, wherein the third and fourth panel elements and the third and fourth semiotic elements are separated from one another by at least a second portion of the second track of the readerboard, wherein the first and third semiotic elements are adjacent one another, and wherein the second and fourth semiotic elements are adjacent one another.
