Arrival

I keep coming back to this film in my thoughts. The premise of the film is that there is an alien lifeform present on earth, and the world in is a panic, unable to communicate with the life form and understand whether their presence is malignant or benign. The army employs a famous professor of language to try and communicate with them, and she discovers that their way of using language is not phonetic, but visual, and doesn't subscribe to the system of rules which apply to human language forms, which dictate the human understanding of time. Through this discovery, her future and past self have an interaction which allows her to communicate with the species and ultimately save the world. This film powerfully references Wittgenstein's theory of language informing our understanding of life, which has been explored through schema and syntax. This is what interests me- the forming of a new culture, a new experience, through language. The thing is- we have the same vocal chords, mouth and brain, so I need to develop some kind of new formula for the description, the understanding, the digestion of the world with the tools that we all have available to us. HOW DO I DO THAT?????!?!
