Commentary on Noam Chomsky's Consciousness, Reality, Mind Body Connection, and Mathematical Realism

see for more Chomsky quotes on this topic - and my analysis:

For the radical anthropology research group of Chris Knight and Camille Powers, Jerome Lewis, etc. on origins of human language from music.
"just as we can't become conscious of how our digestive system works...if you want to study how it works and it is a major nervous system...you have to study it from a third person point of view from the outside and the same is true of our mental life."
Noam Chomsky, 4/12/2022

'What's conscious can't be disentangled from what's unconscious..."
"It's the same internal system. So if we keep to the internal system, the core of language, turns out it pays NO ATTENTION to things like linear order; only pays attention to the structure of expressions, which has a very funny consequence: It means your children, for example, when they are acquiring language, pay NO ATTENTION to 100% of what they hear, and ONLY pay attention to what they NEVER HEAR. They hear things in linear order but the rules that they use pay attention to structure which they don't hear, they construct it in their minds."
"Let me ask you a question. When you're typing a letter, not paying a lot of attention; just typing, not paying much attention. Do you ever notice that you make typographical errors, where you type a word that sounds the same way? Like, suppose you're planning to say write but you write, right?...Happens to me too. I think what it means is you're HEARING the things. You're writing but you're actually HEARING. And that writing is a kind of very peripheral activity and HEARING is much DEEPER EMBEDDED.

"...So actually when you're doing something like typing you're often just HEARING yourself. That's why you make mistakes like that. Are their differences in the way people do this? "
So in fact this is just logical inference of noncommutativity as de Broglie's Law of Phase Harmony. Check out Fields Medal Math Professor Alain Connes lectures on "the music of shapes" and his noncommutative geometry lectures. He's arguing that because the inner cross products of the matrices are unobservable as Heisenberg discovered therefore they are the inherent organizing infinity that is also negative entropy. We perceive them as random since we can only observe them after the fact. But we can LISTEN to them since we can listen to music, as proven by science, up to ten times faster than Fourier Uncertainty.

Dr. Anirban Bandyopadhyay corroborated the claims of Penrose and Hameroff that the ultrasound resonates the microtubules as a quantum coherence due to the tubulin metamaterial so that it is a nonlocal quantum coherence. It's proven in tinnitus research that the highest pitch we can listen to externally then resonates the brain internally as ultrasound. So by listening to the highest pitch externally based on logical inference we then directly resonate with the nonlocal noncommutativity that then provides a harmonizing resonance force from the future - what Professor Basil J. Hiley calls a new "causative force."

in fact, an infant doesn't pay attention to 100% of what it hears, linear order. It pays attention to what it NEVER HEARS, the structure that it brains constructs: which is a pretty dramatic finding."
"Why is it that out of 220 primate species, we are the only one which talks? Laughter, too, is a uniquely human sound. Although quite different from language, collective and contagious laughter set the scene for words and grammar by establishing the necessary bonds of trust. This talk will cover the early stages of human evolution, focusing on the full range of conditions which scientists consider necessary for language to evolve."
Chris Knight and Jerome Lewis discuss their co-authored book, ‘When Eve Laughed.’ Although we humans are a species of great ape, our large brains and capacities for language set us apart from our primate cousins. Chris and Jerome untangle the story of how language became established through levelling humour, choral singing and ritual. They argue that although both sexes were involved, female coalitionary strategies played a decisive role at every stage
Chris Knight discusses the significance of the tongue in the emergence of speech. Compared with an ape's tongue, is the human one special in some way? social factors such as honesty and trust are more decisive than anatomy in deciding whether language will evolve.

The "sing-song" voice with children - Motherese - is advocated by the Polyvagal Theory. So the left side vagus nerve gets activated by a deep right side vagus nerve activation (that is unmyelinated). This is achieved by flexing the middle ear muscle to listen to the highest pitch heard externally. Dr. Stephen Porges has the details.

The hand gesture origin is promoted by Professor Michael Corballis with right hand dominant creating left brain dominance for language.

The book, "The Haunting Melody" by the psychologist Theodore Reik argues that when a melody comes into our head it is a bridge to our immediate subconscious. If we can then remember the words of the song for the melody then our subconscious message is revealed to us. So this is a kind of reversal of the argument that songs create language with the "open slot" as a subconscious message that is then conveyed intentionally through the music directly. The intention is there before the words but is expressed through music which is direct emotional energy - not a symbolic expression of emotion.

to the Musicians question on polyphonic singing see Dr. Victor Gauer's book "Sounding the Depths: Tradition and the Voices of History" - he traced the original human culture music as it spread around the world. Very fascinating and crucial research.

Gregory Bateson wrote of jokes as a "double bind" of logic in relation to ecology and evolution. This paradox he struggled with but it was solved by Eddie Oshins working at SLAC and part of the Cambridge alternative philosophy group. So the secret is noncommutative logic that is also explained by music as Fields Medal math professor Alain Connes points out. See "The Music of Shapes" - the hidden melodic recursive "variations on a theme" or inner hearing - as Chomsky calls it - is this noncommutative time-frequency logic that Alain Connes explains.

The Bouba-Kiki Effect is related to sound symbolism as well.

the virtual language used to trick animals - but that has to take place in mutual trust based on good intentions - what about the argument that children learn "white lies" by age 4 - Dr. Marc Hauser....

Birds use fake sound signals to trick other birds for hunting

check out Dr. Erich Jarvis on how similar the bird brain is to the human brain in regards to singing as vocal communication. Fascinating.

what about when the dominant alpha female bonobo has sex she makes lots of noise but if the beta female has sex with the beta male then they have to sneak off to be silent. This conscious choice to NOT make noise is thus Darwinian Deception as a fake signal that goes against the emotions of the sex.
This ties into the "staying power" of the males during dancing as healing energy or N/om with the songs intentionally using gibberish words.
