The Indu

#fiction

Humanity has met their first alien. And we have no idea how to communicate with them. After years of working on the problem, here is what we know.

They don't communicate via sound like we do. Rather they have a special organ in their brain that is dedicated to direct idea communication. They touch foreheads and they induce the formation of an idea, memory. or engram in the receiver.

For the receiver, this must be like reliving the experience. The physiology suggests that receiving area is separate from actual memory, so it may be more like walking through a virtual world of the transmitter's memory and imagination.

This allows them to communicate is ways that are incredibly different from humans. When I write or speak, everything that you perceive is filtered through your own experience. I can say something is blue, but I cannot tell you what blue is. At some fundamental level, everything that you hear or read is tempered by your knowledge and experience.

Communication between the Indu is sharing a thought. They could convey an idea for which they don't have a word. In fact, the idea of a word is, well, alien to them.

Impostor syndrome - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Impostor syndrome - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "Impostor syndrome (also known as impostor phenomenon or fraud syndrome) is a term coined in 1978 by clinical psychologists Dr. Pauline R. Clance and Suzanne A. Imes referring to high-achieving individuals marked by an inability to internalize their accomplishments and a persistent fear of being exposed as a "fraud".[1] Despite external evidence of their competence, those exhibiting the syndrome remain convinced that they are frauds and do not deserve the success they have achieved. Proof of success is dismissed as luck, timing, or as a result of deceiving others into thinking they are more intelligent and competent than they believe themselves to be."

Dunning–Kruger effect - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Dunning–Kruger effect - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "The Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which low-ability individuals suffer from illusory superiority, mistakenly assessing their ability as much higher than it really is. Dunning and Kruger attributed this bias to a metacognitive inability of those of low ability to recognize their ineptitude and evaluate their ability accurately."


The Impostor syndrome, in many ways, is the opposite of Dunning-Kruger.
