I’ve posted an audio monolog prompted by
@evantthompson’s comment, recorded by@_awbery_. Most of it is not directly responsive, although we did get to the point at the end. The accompanying text notes may be more relevant. Comments welcome!https://meaningness.com/metablog/buddhism-cognitivism-podcast …4 replies 3 retweets 22 likes -

nice set of namechecks. Stafford Beer was also a very early yogi, having picked it up along with a lot of other orientalism in India - must ask his surviving partner if she knows if he was into buddhism too!

IIRC, Cybersyn had no *functioning* computers - it worked by telex and handwritten transparencies responding to the push of a button - so, rather wonderful that it was a mechanical turk in a way! And the reason it looks like the starship Enterprise control room is - SAME CHAIRS

(All this is outwith your (anti)cognitive stuff but in the realm of 'all the interesting people talk to each other) - NB that *every* economy is part-managed (and every firm is a managed economy), so clever people are now going back to e.g. Yugoslavian managed economy work

I'm just about to add a comment to http://meaningness.com - which will probably trigger the spam filter, sorry! It's too early to say cybernetics is a dead end, y'know ;-) See this absurdly spread out but v good overview http://www.iiis.org/videosufh-slides.pdf …
