What is Wittgenstein?

A philosopher who tried to solve the question of, if a tree falls in the forest; and no one hears it did, it make a sound?

More broadly Wittgenstein answered the question: Did language come from outside of pan-contiguity (the universe) or inside of pan-contiguity...

Wittgenstein viewed language as a human ritual; and ritual as subject to game theory.

He introduced the concept of the external participant in contrast to physics' external observer. Thus, each participant becomes a part of embedded-language-in-the universe.

Wittgenstein - what does it mean?

(adj.)

To have a pure and formal research interest be ridiculed by an arrogant newcomer who studied a discipline that relies on applications of your own (and may have studied your exact research as a much younger student).

I would have kept my professorship, but I was Wittgensteined by a college student who read my work with a computer engineering tutor when he was five years old.
