Wittgenstein 

A philosopher who tried to solve the question of, if a tree falls in the forest; and no one hears it did, it make a sound?

More broadly Wittgenstein answered the question: Did language come from outside of pan-contiguity (the universe) or inside of pan-contiguity...
Wittgenstein viewed language as a human ritual; and ritual as subject to game theory.

He introduced the concept of the external participant in contrast to physics' external observer. Thus, each participant becomes a part of embedded-language-in-the universe.
