Abstract :
In 1957 J. von Neumann introduced the Primary Language when he suggested that the languages we use are just external languages while the Primary Language is the only internal language of the human brain. Due to its age this cannot be symbolic. Instead, this must be a system of hybrid and mostly analog algorithms embedded in the human brain. This paper reports results of research on two possible components of the Primary Language, Linguistic Geometry (LG) and the Algorithm of Discovery. LG is a type of game theory for a class of extensive discrete games called Abstract Board Games (ABG), scalable to the level of real life defense systems. LG is an evolutionary product of millions of years of human warfare. It appears that LG is a formal model of human reasoning about armed conflict, a mental reality “hard-wired” in the human brain. Experiences of development of LG were utilized for solving major puzzle, discovering the Algorithm of Discovery, which must be another ancient component of the Primary Language. The major emphasis of his paper is on the results of investigation of the mental processes called visual streams that manifest execution of this algorithm. It reveals the various types of visual streams, the way of focusing those streams and constructing new streams. It particular it reveals the relationship of visual streams and mathematical proofs.
