Listen "Nikomiko "
Episode Synopsis
Shane interviews Nikomiko about his involvement in the creation of Viossa, a pidgin language that was constructed in online chat rooms through playful interaction in any language except English and which has since grown into a thriving community. We discuss the wild world of constructed and evolving languages, and play with ways that new languages could help build new cultures in this volatile time in history.Recommended resourcesConlangs Subreddit- https://www.reddit.com/r/conlangs/Viossa Subreddit- https://www.reddit.com/r/Viossa/The Conlangery Podcast - https://conlangery.comJan Misali's Conlang Critic Episode 1 - https://youtu.be/l-unefmAo9k?si=RFhVZGQQe2Rm034gFind more of Shane’s work at:Zero Input Agriculture blog: https://zeroinputagriculture.substack.comTaming the Apocalypse ebook - https://www.amazon.com/Taming-Apocalypse-Shane-Simonsen-ebook/dp/B0D2XCLJ85/Taming the Apocalypse audiobook - https://www.kobo.com/au/en/audiobook/taming-the-apocalypse-2Our Vitreous Womb - https://www.amazon.com/Our-Vitreous-Womb-Book-1-4-ebook/dp/B0C7H9N1K3/
