Transmission

undefined:

Transmission (or mediated communication) refers to internal communication that is accomplished through a technological intermediary or a specific tool (e.g, forming full sentences through isolated words from several radio shows, highlighting specific words in a page, extracting specific words from a dictionary and placing them on the same page/interface, etc.).

This communication method may be used (notably by sentient headspace) to make announcements in the headspace (see Announcer).

Related Terms
This term may not qualify the act of a headmate translating or interpreting non-verbal/semi-verbal speech, as these are the roles of translators and interpreters. This term may also not qualify a sentient headspace translating some headmates speech for others, as this is intermediate communication.

Thoughtsharing refers to direct, intentional but unspoken, internal communication between headmates.

Thoughtbleeding refers to direct, unintentional and unspoken, internal communication between headmates.

History
This term was coined by Pluralpedia user Oceanic-Lanterns, on November, 25th, 2023.

Originally, this term was specifically coined for sentient headspaces that interact through technological devices to communicate, with its definition extending to mechanistic headmates (robots, artificial intelligences, etc.) who are able to perform such an action due to their technological nature.

But considering this process can also be done physically by non-technological headmates (through a physical dictionary for example), the definition was then soon extended to any living being such as headmates.
