Synopsis

aUI The Language of Space is a symbolic, universal language designed to "heal the human mind from the slavery of slogans of hate into a peace through understanding, a cosmic consciousness of harmony with the universal Spirit." Whether you consider this an artificial or constructed language or cosmically inspired you will no doubt quickly see the genius of the 31 graphic symbols that make up aUI (space -mind - sound). Each symbol representing a concept and combined together to interpret and express feelings and concepts both simple and complex. Consider the nearly hundred words that describe "snow" in the Icelandic language and you can easily understand the concept of many more variations of concepts of "time", "space", "life" than we may have available in the English language. Consider among our popular culture from the series Game of Thrones and it's constructed language, there is no word for "thank you " or "forgiveness" in Dothraki. The Cosmic Communication Foundation headed by Andrea Weigart Patten (daughter of the late Dr. John W. Weilgart) offer this 4th Edition of aUI The Language of Space for the first time available via modern print-on-demand technology.

About the Author

Dr. W. John Weilgart(1913-1981)earned his doctoral degree in philosophy from the University of Vienna and a postdoctoral diploma in psychoanalysis from the University of Heidelberg. After having learnt a dozen different languages, he first began designing aUI, The Language of Space in 1952 while in Japan, where he studied Japanese and taught English. His motivating influence was what he saw as the deathly power of alliterative slogans used by Hitler. He sought to design a language transparent to meaning and in which the confusion of homophony and polysemy was not possible. He taught psychology as well as other subjects throughout his career, lastly for at Luther College in Decorah, Iowa.
