Defining Language as Technology
$1.00
A framework showing language as the first technology—letters as circuits, words as programs, discourse as networks—spelling the foundation of all meaning.
Description
Defining Language as Technology presents language as humanity’s original machine—a system that encodes, transmits, and stabilizes meaning through spelling. Letters are the circuits, graphemes the signals, words the executables, and discourse the network. Every unit of language references another in a recursive loop, yet all return to the alphabet as the motherboard.
This document shows how orthography operates as protocol, phonemes as acoustic encoding, morphemes as data packets, and sentences as full programs of thought. It reframes symbols, operators, and logographs as compressed schematics that remain coherent only because letters spell them into the system. From AI and law to science and education, language functions as the universal technology powering every domain. This is a guide for linguists, technologists, and philosophers who want to understand language not only as communication but as the foundation of all technologies.
