I cannot understand the language of form in the movie Arrival . Has anybody figured out , what in the movie they figured out ?
Spoiler alert Spoiler The theory is that language shapes how you perceive reality. Since the aliens perceive time as a whole (your past, future and current times can be perceived in the present [ala Kurt Vonnegut's tralfamadorians]), when the linguist understood the language she could see the future.
Good sci-fi flick. They figured out a universal mathematical underlay for creation, showing non-violence as the way to proceed, which they wished to communicate. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
