That MMmmmm sound reminds me of @Douggins’ _shwoop (sp?)_ (for the sound of intuitive knowing) from this talk here: [Cosmos Café: Alternate Ways of Knowing [12/12]](https://www.infiniteconversations.com/t/cosmos-cafe-alternate-ways-of-knowing-12-12/1596)

Is this the creativity of language in the act? The birth of words from weird twists of experience?

We talked a bit about constructed languages. @Lisa, are you (or is anyone else) familiar with the musician / filmmaker / artist Stuart Davis? Here’s a really nice presentation of his created language, _IS_, which brings together vertical (depth), horizontal (orientation), and creative (expressive) dimensions of commun(ion)ication with a sort of calligraphic meta-aware aesthetic.
