@@EyeOrCoke because they're literally standing on their middle and first legs, the "tails" are a highly derived pair of hind legs that evolved to act as a counter balance against their heavy brains
@Cree8Ball, did harlos discover the theory of evolution, or the order of body and mind shunned that people who believe in evolution so they could control the masses
the language Gallifreyan in Doctor Who was radial as well, but we hardly ever see it and they didn't flesh it out much, so I'd say this is a way better one!
Sometimes random smaller channels just pop up in your feed and just captivate you with its high quality and interesting videos. This is one of those times. I can’t wait to watch the rest of them! The radial language really stands out as unique.
Wow, the story and the features of these aliens are so refreshingly new and thought-provoking! I'm also eager to see how their society and the course of their history change due to their interactions with humans...
Yeah, I get it, but I don't think a species with such different eyes would develop a language that you just read left to right or top to bottom or whatever
@@Cree8Ball that’s understandable, it may even be cool if their early peoples to carve their texts into their “tree”’s inner rings. What confuses me is how you would write something like a book, manuscript, or even just a simple phrase beyond a sentence in that writing style.
@@xaviwashere_ compound words are usually just unique rings that take elements from two different rings. Like the "Human" symbol is just a mix of their symbols for "Joone and Space" since they thought humans were just alien Joones. And for sentences, they have specific rings that act the same way as periods do in English, so you know when one sentence ends and the next begins
the only laws that a spacefaring intelligent species should follow is that they need SOME way to interact with ANY kind of machinery (such as limbs, or even something like a way to emit noises/other things to control tech), and atleast some adaptation to space itself.
Wow, that is so wonderfull and creative, if u have enough time then I hope u'll expand on this lovely project like u did with the post human one, also, I have a question : can't the harlos manipulate their surroundings with their trunks at least to some extend and can't they sorta use their tails to lift heavier things?
I gave them the little pincers so they'd be able to do simple things like writing and sewing, so yes, they can do some stuff like that, but anything that requires much strength their basically useless. And their tails aren't dexterous, they pretty much only exist as a counterbalance against their heavy brains
How do you get the ideas for this stuff? This is extremely creative, on par with the World of the Birrin. Also, it can e argued that cats are the intelligent species, and use us to get food, protection and free massages, and only pretend to be unintelligent.
Well I of course had the help of my discord server, but other than that I mostly just try to establish a strong base and then push everything else to it's extreme. Like, "how would this interspecies symbiosis actually manifest?" Turns to, "how would this connection affect their religion" turns to "what would happen if the religious folks lost their Joones" turns to "why would they need to lose their Joones?" And so on. And that goes for their biology, too, like how would they actually write and speak? I even developed a way that they would sew, but I didn't have time for it in the episode
At first thought, non-humanoid aliens would make more sense because of the fact that we, "Are influenced to think things are like us" But in actuality, it would make more sense for aliens to have humanoid bodies as there is not that much limit to flexibility etc. And the humanoid body we have is pretty easy to control, sustain and manage. It isn't the best type of body for a species but it is one of the best choices in evolution. Unless it is a more primitive species, humanoid bodies are probably one of the keys for more advanced societies. Emphasis on probably.
Well it's more that there's no reason that a linear writing style would have to be a universal default, especially since their fully independent eyes and 360 degree vision would result in them reading differently, anyway
sorry if the first comment was rude what I meant was that the history could be that the language was just in imitation of the sign language instead of it being formed from the 360 view.
@@Cree8BallI assume he meant why in traditional media (alien movies and such) the alien species are usually just regular human people except for their skin color being wildly different from humans (such as blue or green) (also I can only assume this was asked because of how your aliens are actually unique from humans and why other fictional works don’t follow this example) also sorry for rambling
@Cree8Ball why do the jones look bigger and like the size of an elephant in your third, and looking human sized at your last. I this their true size, or the future humans see the zone as sentient and see them in eye level and see the harlos like pets.Oh my hawk(god)I have allot questions.
Joones have remained more or less the same size throughout history, but the Harlos have gotten bigger over time, so on the third picture the Joone wasn't bigger, the Harlo was just smaller
@Cree8Ball if the harlos and joones live in the same universe as all tommorws project, would you make the post humans discover the harlos and joones, and some cool stuff and conflicts
Kind of sad how all these cool aliens with competely different belief systems and bioligies keep just drifting to just human capitalism and industry(al) revolution. I guess some things are universal 😔
