“Collective Language – Asian Contemporary Architecture Exhibition” employs language as a means to connect all elements of the world. Tens of thousands, or even millions, of years ago, language manifested in various forms among different creatures, including auditory whistle language, visual body language, tactile perception language, olfactory smell language, and more. However, the origin and development of language still spark different discussions. In 1809, French biologist Jean-Baptiste Lamarck published “Zoological Philosophy,” proposing that as the environment changes, species adapt and develop their own organs. This adaptation leads to the growth of commonly used organs and the gradual degeneration of unused ones. The acquired changes in one generation are then passed on to the next. This discussion not only introduces new perspectives to linguists but also demonstrates how different creatures have used diverse methods to communicate through language over millions of years.
