*** "Director as Thinker" = Artist as Philosopher. Pomo as Genre. Taganka and Lubimov as "Professional Amateur." (No "School" established, as with Peter Brook).
20th century is the space (time) of amateurs... Including Stanislavsky? ... "It is essential to put an end to the subjugation of the theatre to the text, and to recover the notion of a kind of unique language half-way between gesture and thought." -Antonin Artaud. "The Theatre and its Double"  notes NEW: In order to work on the concept, I have to be personal -- and to go back to my "PostAmerica" writings... The American Book.
 Bad Subjects, Wrong Theories "Total"? It has to be amateur! Amateur Theatre, amateur art... hello, 3rd millennium. What is "professional"? "Author theory"? Artist as System, unique and "accidental"? Reaction to "Mechanical Age" of replication? Director is pomo artist. What does he do? Montage of Attractions! Art of Spectatorship? Book of Spectator. Director "writes" and "acts" like a spectator, indirectly. But how the arrangement became dominant craft? (As in music?) Wait! But in hard sciences professionalization rule, right? Direct Page @ vtheatre I. "Common sense is not too common." - Voltaire (quote for?)
2007 notes : "directing web-show"? Theatre2.0 Director's Notes? ...

Theatre, Film? BOTH. Web!No, no storyboards. But the difference between "play" and "playscript" is important: script is the blueprints for the show. Virtual Theatre directing is DESIGNING THE SPECTACLE: on stage for live audience... and for the cameras... and for the screen...
I left Beckett (Godot, Spring 2006) confused. Great Play? Or "script"? No more great dramas?
"Director's Theatre" (20th century) is show-based; I myself wrote a few "compositions" (not plays). Away, away from literature? Grotowski and the Idea of Shaman = no to "Theatre" in principle?
Stanislavsky made his "method" based on actor-individual -- and Chekhov became the last dramatic writer...
In theory it all looks understandable.
In practice...
