Appendix E / Reading guide

How to read this volume

An edge case combines demands that are often flattened into a single label. Read each as a small performance problem.

  1. Identify the conflict. What is the person trying to do, and what competes for breath, attention, social control or movement?
  2. Make the case playable. Specify the trigger, objective, partner and recovery. The Script Analysis System supplies the character’s authored context.
  3. Inspect the result. Record task interruption, available audio and visible response. Compare the suggestion with the evidence; do not copy it into an observation.

FieldMeaning
Performance problemThe source’s dramatic description. Metaphors help imagine the task; they do not state a mechanism.
Source acoustic suggestionA possible delivery to explore or compare. It is neither a required outcome nor a diagnosis.
Audio–visual taskQuestions for observing a recording: trigger, interruption, response and recovery.
Source detector cuesInherited shorthand for proposed annotation targets. The tokens are retained exactly for reference.

EDGE-000 is a stable case identifier. An up or down arrow in a detector cue expresses a proposed relative level: ↑ higher, ↓ lower, ↑↑ more strongly higher. It does not establish a calibrated threshold or measured effect. A transition arrow such as seize→recover describes an intended sequence.

The source cue names include legacy voice tokens, styles and event names; they are not all PerformanceNet scale IDs. Keep them as source metadata and use the explicit scale definitions in Appendices A and B for scoring. fictional_or_reference_context_review is the inherited context-review handling category.

Example. In “Speaking while climbing”, the task may compete with sentence timing. Annotate where a phrase actually stops and what the body does at that instant; leave the cause uncertain when the channel cannot show it.

One acting system, two perspectives. The Humaneness Script Analysis System turns a script into character makeup and all seven scene obligations: Time & Place, Relationship, Emotional, Character, Historic, Thematic and Subtextual. Each outer Acting Beat contains exactly one Experience Chunk: fictional conditioning for the AI actor. The model generates audio or an audiovisual performance from those instructions. PerformanceNet then describes and evaluates the available output. Authored context, observed evidence and audience interpretation remain distinct.

Inherited scope statement

A compound case links a circumstance to a performance problem. Detector tokens in the source are proposed annotation targets, not proof that the generated or observed performance will have those properties. Preserve individual and cultural variation.

This reading edition adds navigation, explanatory labels and reading guidance. Record IDs, source titles, source paragraphs and catalogue order are retained. Supplementary material retains its original provenance.

Place these cases in the shared space. The PerformanceNet Situation Taxonomy retains the eleven source domains and adds explicit contextual facets where the base inventory is insufficient. Edge cases and physical extremes are test points within the joint situation, emotion, voice and performance space. A point may leave its scene context unspecified; an emotion alone does not establish a situation. The complete mapping file records the grounding and limits of every case.

Physical Exertion & Environment

Start with the practical task. Ask where movement changes a phrase, where the task is interrupted, and how the person recovers.

Source trace

Canonical cue names were checked against the pinned LAION VoiceNet taxonomy. The plain-language explanations beside them are editorial paraphrases. They describe the source vocabulary without adopting its psychological or physiological claims as established measurements.

Three qualified shorthands. ACNT is an accent cue in EDGE-204, EDGE-218 and EDGE-245; LANG is a language-use cue in EDGE-201 and EDGE-206. Their context is explicit, but the pinned codebook does not define them as standalone dimensions. AUTH occurs in EDGE-089 as S_FORM/AUTH; its standalone meaning is unresolved and is not silently equated with S_AUTH.
