- Images, Life-World Cultural Patterns, Artistic Cultural Forms - are they a language... an expression or are they part of human cultural expressions that we fail to see? I argue they are important but because they tend to be simple we most often are blinded by that simplicity and miss the important meanings of these patterns of practices, especially those which are non-verbal, or not written that many closed, remote communities from Asia-to-Africa-to right here in America seek to save, protect, and honor...but know this...when we do so we lose something as a global community. Many of these non-verbal patterns, some extremely artistic, are connected to endangered or moribund (no longer being taught to the next generation) dialects, with nearly 6,000 patterns of language and cultural practices facing one of these issues; but today I am going to talk and show you one of those cultural practices patterns - Uli - that profoundly affected me, as it underscores the "why" and the "seriousness" of the plight of disappearing cultural patterns of many close communities so you can add your voice to the need to protect cultural expressions no matter where on the globe they are.
