Direct communication has in an immediate way just that content that it intends to communicate, whereas indirect communication initially has some other content than that which is actually to be communicated. Direct communication transmits content without a break from the sender to the receiver. In indirect communication the path is broken: the content first reveals its actual meaning by being considered from another perspective. Indirect is on a higher level: it always has direct communication as its basis, but takes this into a new perspective.[22]
