In the Netherlands vierhandengebarentaal (four hands sign language) can be used by doofblinden next to NGT or other communication means. I once witnessed the preparations of lessons in this sign language. A group of deafblind people gathered to act as counterparts of hearing students. Obviously they were having a good time, enjoying each others company as a group of friends would. Their communication amongst each other and with the hearing teachers was not without difficulties but then again, so is mine with many people.

And now, there is a plan to produce it in Dutch and Sign Language of the Netherlands (SLN, or Nederlandse Gebarentaal, NGT). But, must the leading Deaf lady Sarah be played by a Deaf lady? Joop van der Ende, the producer, would like to put a big name,

But would the concept 'boring someone' have a clear meaning to an autist? 
MIT tells us that the accuracy is 90% for actors, and 64% for ordinary people. Presumably both under lab conditions and not in the real world. That is so bad that additional very strange things will happen. The alarms will be unreliable. Now, imagine this conversation:
You: Hi, nice weather, isn't it?
Autist: I don't like sun.
You: It might rain later.
Autist: I like rain... wait, sorry, I am boring you, yes?
You: Well...eh...
Autist: I know a joke.
You: Okay...
Autist: Well, bye!
And all you really wanted was to spend some quiet time with you're autistic relative, keeping up a simple conversation, while your mind wandered elsewhere (what to cook tonight, perhaps).

Reese's action unites the two levels of gesture: first in the narrow sense there is the actual action of 'standing by someone', a simple form-meaning pair of standing beside someone and embracing his shoulders that means to communicate 'I am with you/this person', this is the gesture-simple. Second, there is the high-level message. The act in it's context: a white player showing his support for a black player who faces racism in a sport that was then (1947) considered 'white', in a racist society. The meaning: "I (PW Reese) admire Robinson as a man and a ballplayer and do not tolerate this racism" or "The Dodgers will stand together" or whatever the reader makes of it (there is a larger beholder's share at a higher level, I think). This second act-meaning pair is the gesture-complex.
