I don't think you're talking about comunication as much as sharing. To communicate you need to establish a mode, then you need to establish a common pattern sequence. Think about what they're doing with dolphins. Okay dolphins are communicating using audible spectrum but they do it completely differently to us, by "farting" 3d models at each other which the recipient renders using the visual cortex. So we've used technology to work this out. So we have no way of explaining to a dolphin what it feels like to have legs but we can begin to communicate by working out which shapes mean what. Most importantly the dolphins seem to be into this, so they're cooperating as best they can. Eventually we'll work out a common sematic and then we can work on teaching them how we use sounds and they can teach us their language(s)

"computation is a pattern in the spacetime arrangement of particles, and it's not the particles but the pattern that really matters! Matter doesn't matter." -- Max Tegmark
