A noema (plural noemata, IPA: /noʊˈiːmə/, /noʊˈeɪmə/)[1] is knowledge about one's kintype, hearttype, or other alterhuman identity. A noema is intrinsic knowledge and, as such, knowledge that has been learned through external sources, such as books, films, and games, are not noemata. Noemata may include memories, things one experiences as memories but which likely aren’t, or general knowledge about the looks, life, or habits of one's alterhuman identity. Noemata may have a psychological or spiritual basis, may be a mix of the two, or may have unknown origins.[2]
