Diadrammatic
Diadrammatic: adjective. Describing something, which in some way represents a theatre work, a dilemma, a perplexing situation or unusual event. This very wide definition was first proposed by the French photographer Nicéphore Niépce, who enjoyed incorporating dramatic scenes into his photographs and daguerrotypes, hence making them diadrammatic. It is likely that we shall never run out of diadrammatic things, as there will always be dramatic events happening, that is unless the great Platypus-Cat of Salem takes over. Of course.
