I hope this doesn't offend you, but I am more confused by your answer than I was before. Could you point me to some papers/books available online (maybe on certain hubs of science) you'd consider "seminal"?
- carapace 6y agoI'm really sorry about that. No offense taken. In re: Cybernetics in general I always recommend "Introduction to Cybernetics" by W. Ross Ashby. It's a whole book but I find it to be the most direct and concrete exposition of Cybernetics. http://pespmc1.vub.ac.be/ASHBBOOK.html http://pespmc1.vub.ac.be/ASHBBOOK.html http://pespmc1.vub.ac.be/books/IntroCyb.pdf http://pespmc1.vub.ac.be/books/IntroCyb.pdf In re: paradigm shift, I don't really know of a single good source for that, but the works of Gregory Bateson, specifically "Steps to an Ecology of Mind" and "Mind and Nature: A Necessary Unity", were useful to me. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gregory_Bateson https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gregory_Bateson https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steps_to_an_Ecology_of_Mind https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steps_to_an_Ecology_of_Mind https://archive.org/details/mindnaturenecess00baterich https://archive.org/details/mindnaturenecess00baterich
