in 16XX, John Wilkins discovered an “imaginary (made-up) reconstruction” of The Cave of the True Name of the Bear in the artifacts catalogued by Cassiano dal Pozzo ⋅ the inscriptions in this cave were written in the true language of reality, which we now know as the Real Character ⋅ this reconstruction invites you to consider: how would you feel if you did not have unmediated access to reality (because you did not speak the Real Character)? Without the theory through which to understand it, your world would seem increasingly chaotic, non-linear, ahistorical, inhuman ⋅ you would have forgotten the True Name of the Bear
