Imagine that one day, a French racecar driver, out of boredom or under the influence of drugs, begins to tell people that a race of super-intelligent aliens is actively observing Earth and the human race. Jeff likes France, racecars, and space, so he kind of likes this idea. As a consequence, he draws pictures of racecars on his skin under his clothes with magic marker as a way to communicate his good will and enlightenment to the aliens. He tells no one about his drawings. Assuming there are, in actuality, no aliens, Is Jeff, in his drawings, engaged in an act of communication?
