Brolls31156yFun fact, sci-fi movie "Arrival" consulted with Wolfram on what the tech and approach to decoding and communicating with a glyph-based alien race would look like.
They looked into the mathematics and linguistics of expressing concepts in a temporally non-linear way and all the examples of alien language you see in the movie are a result of this work.
They have a blog post on it https://blog.wolfram.com/2017/01/...
And Wolfram was also consulted on the shape and function of the space ship.
I just love it when media really goes in and does its homework.
