摘要：Burger Time ou les Tentations de Saint Antoine is a 12-minute (12’54’’, to be precise) piece of electronic music composed by Mauro Lanza. Being a close friend of the composer, I would have no problem in extorting him the information that I might deem useful for the description of the piece, from the aesthetic principles at its origin down to the minute details of its technical implementation. However, this existential proximity is embarrassing for a semiologist as I am: the goal of the semiologist being the description, though certainly problematic, of how sense is constructed as immanent to the object, regardless of its genetic history. In Jules Verne’s Les enfants du Captain Grant , Lord Glenarvan retrieves a fragmentary document in a bottle swallowed by a shark. In investigating the three-part document, the only assumption that he makes concerns the enunciation: the message has been certainly written by someone. As Glenarvan says, “les quelques mots qui ont résisté ne me laissent aucun doute à cet égard”. But, on the other hand, Glenarvan also observes: “les mots tracés sur ces documents sont fort incomplets”. Thus, in order to understand the message, a difficult reconstruction attempt is to be tried. These two elements, an assumption of significance and a state of incompleteness, are the starting points for the hermeneutic effort of both Lord Glenarvan and the semiologist.
