Abstract EN

Language is a tool used to classify and thus organize the mysterious sequence of perceived sensations.

However, vast parts of sensory space do not fully belong to certain sensory methods, and thus cause artificial and aesthetic sensations.

Some of them are so old and so subconscious that they have no specific names (similar to most known sensations).

Our awareness of any material input depends on the characteristics of the sensory systems.

These are our windows to the world, and they are also the doors from which the world comes to our minds.

But even after reaching us, sensory information does not lose its complex and mysterious nature, it is only a flow of chemical, sound, mechanical or light waves, which must be regulated - and most importantly- classified according to the restrictions imposed on each living species.

Each organism on this planet has its own environment and surroundings that adapt to its own needs.

And it seems that language is the best way to combat the chaos of the senses that we encounter hundreds of times per second by launching labels on the different information that comes to us through the senses, and normalizes the personal experiences of individuals, and thus it tests in one way or another what it reaches through the senses and communicates with the outside world Accordingly and you evaluate it at the same time.

This means that language, being a cultural phenomenon, although it is based on algorithms that have been genetically developed, however, it links natural objects to neurophysiological events through traditional semiotic mechanisms.
