Blaken

This is my conlang, the language of the Blakenian people. This language is young but it is eager to grow and bloom into a beautiful network of human thought.

Blaken Manifesto

1. What happens matters more than who someone is

2. Blaken must reflect a worldview of non-attachment, clarity of intention, compassion, and awareness of mind

3. Blaken avoids

  • Reification, processes are not rigid objects
  • Ego anchoring

4. Possession is a relationship, not control

5. Events are lived, not classified

6. Blaken aligns its grammar with emotional intelligence

7. Blaken exists and other languages exist

8. Blaken changes like the tides and the phases of the moon

9. Blaken does not believe in pronouns, because there are open classes

10. Blaken allows the expression of frustration and deep sadness in a centered way

11. One should resist automatic moral judgement, speech, and identity

12. In Blaken one cannot judge the feelings

13. In Blaken there is no automatic speech, judgment, or identity
