I understanding this, we are human living human lives from a human perspective in a human world. We know very little else so of course this shapes expectations and also imagination is left human centric.

Its been nagging me alot, even to the point where nowadays i started to cringe when the DockerDonna had their technobable for the sake of techobable. I shouldn’t cringe cause i know how uneconomically insane the alternative is.

Ive been trying to work on something where the -first principles of science are inherently non human (but still hinged on real theoretical scientific ideas in the same universe),

I limited myself to make electronics and some other common human stuff to be rare exotic tech that most species wouldn’t know off. This means, no screens, no computers, no conventional gadgets like communicators, no cars, no spaceships, It forces me to really think trough how exactly a species might have archived an advanced stage with respect to their individual cultures and past.

The problem is its a behemoth i may never Finnish, re-inventing language from the ground up is pretty hard as is, don't even get me started on my attempt of creating alien mathematics and number systems for a species supposedly infinitely more clever then i will ever be.
