Conlanging 101
I make languages (and you can too)
Learn about the art/craft of language creation ("conlanging"), and participate in making up a new language on the spot.
This presentation is a talk + a workshop.
The talk will cover:
- why people make languages (aka conlanging)
- what kinds of conlangs there are, with some notable examples
- how one goes about making a language
- audience collaboration to create a language on the spot
The workshop (immediately afterwards, in B04) might be:
- continuing work on the group language
- small groups creating their own unique mini-languages w/ guidance
- extended Q&A
- something else entirely made up on the fly
