Jason Silva on Language | Brain Games

language comprehension is in a part of
the brain that scientists call the
language loop one of these for example
is Broca’s area which is where grammar
is processed so there’s all this
complexity you know the brain and
language go together almost like a
symbiotic kind of way the emergence of
language basically reprogram the
software of the brain language turned a
feral mind into a tool that could think
with purpose and deliberation language
is a tool that allows the mind to talk
to itself Kevin Kelley who wrote what
technology wants referred to language as
the first singularity and the world Post
language would be inconceivable to early
hominids on the other side of that life
language in a way was the evolutionary
process coming up with a way to
understand itself we through language
and eventually science and technology
have decommissioned natural selection
and now get to use language to discuss
and decide what we wish to become so it
is a way in which the cosmos knows
itself language impregnates the world
with meaning and signification
