It is a song
. It is a whisper. It is a poem scribbled on a napkin. It is a promise.
It is much more and much less. It is language, and language is ideas.
This is a site dedicated to the study of
language from four vantage points:
neurobiology, psychology, cultural anthropology, and philosophy.
Come read, play, think ... immerse
yourself in our efforts. Send us your thoughts.
