Presence is taken to be a structural entity, the presence, the confrontation of all signifying systems the signifying systems, created both by production and reception (the spectators). The study of “presence” as a semiotic phenomenon suggests that the meaning of “presence”, as a sign, is generally understood in relation to other concerns, and all lie beyond the province of signification.
