Tolkien knew exactly what communication meant.
How?
He was Battalion Signal Officer during WWI.

#ViCom annual meeting. First talk proposes to apply common standards to human and non-human communication. The question is what creates meaning: typically characterized as intentional, voluntarily controlled, and metarepresentational (theory of mind). But all criteria are not necessary for meaning #visualCommunication #linguistics #animalCommunication

When life gives you train delays, take minimal photos.

I stumbled on this article earlier today:

https://www.logodesignlove.com/yukio-ota-locos

And the only source I can find for a copy of the book mentioned is Amazon, who I refuse to support.

Does anyone have any online (paid or not) resources for the language itself, or a copy of the LoCoS book mentioned in the article?
