    …meaning, but keep producing this stuff. The syntactical organization is still there, almost as though syntax, and I think probably Chomsky and that school has established this, that syntax is an assembly language, a deeper structure behind the local language.…

    …had all the machinery, the physical machinery, the lungs, the vocal cord the coordinating mind and apparently, if you follow Chomsky and his school, the genetically laid down foundations for syntax and syntax Chomsky has shown precedes language. I mean…

    …mind and apparently, if you follow Chomsky and his school, the genetically laid down foundations for syntax and syntax Chomsky has shown precedes language. I mean chimpanzees and squids show evidence of syntax, but their language is extremely rudimentary.…

    2:08:22

    …it is the most remarkable thing we do. I think and we talked a little bit this morning about epigenetic behaviors. Chomsky showed that language, the deep structure of language, is under genetic control. But that's like the assembly language level, local…

    …them down into matter and you know the fact that you can recognize instantly millions of sentences that you've never heard before. Chomsky and his school has spent a lot of time trying to understand this. So language is like the privileged vehicle by…

    …a model of the world that you can inhabit. And I dare say dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, all do this. And if, as Chomsky believes, there are what are called syntactical deep structures in the human brain, they didn't just leap into existence 50 000 years…

    …change but we don't know what language is we don't know whether it arises in the organism this is the New School of Chomsky or whether you know it descends from divinity and vouchsafes our relationship to the good lord. We don't know what it is. I…

    10:53

    …know that there is what are called the 15 levels or I'm sorry, the 15 rules for the deep structure of a language. Chomsky says that not only all known languages will follow these rules, but all possible languages will follow these rules because if it…

    …linguistic utterance? I mean maybe. Well let's look at the proposition no two human thoughts are exactly alike if you believe Chomsky and theories of deep structure what's been said there is any thinkable thought is going to follow rules that can be…

    …you don't mention Noam Chomsky. It seems like he's amongst other people, Michael Pereni, who continued the attack on the media. Chris Chomsky is more of a political: how the media is used to pass along misinformation and to infantilize people and make the…

    …thing. I guess the reason I don't mention him is I'm very wary of anyone I don't completely understand and when I think of Chomsky I think of transformational grammar, and I went to 10 lectures by him at Berkeley in the late 60s and I was impressed…

    …an epigenetic behavior. Language is an epigenetic behavior, painting, dance language for possibly borderline, quasi genetic, quasi epigenetic as Chomsky implied. The thing that we're not coming to terms with because it's almost literally it's unthinkable is that…

    5:01:41

    …as weird as what happens to you when you smoke DMT it would just be a news story, something for NASA to take over. Chomsky would explain it to us the linguistic side I mean. But you personally can meet the alien anytime you want and the culture can…

    In The Valley Of Novelty1 mention
    1:15:19

    …I've never really been all that comfortable with the idea that language would evolve out of grunts and groans when guys like Chomsky say it's all organized. It's a big system in language, and all kinds of languages can be very different, but inside they…

    …organizational architecture of the human organism which onto a game such as that will effortlessly lay what is called syntax. And Chomsky and others have shown that what is called the rules of transformational grammar or the deep structures of language are…

    2:02:34

    …this far, god knows. You were talking about syntax and language and being able to go back on the other side and look at it. Chomsky I think wrote some books about what that syntax all looks like. I was just wondering what you saw when you went on the…
