Norbert Wiener
The Cybernetic Philosopher of Feedback and Fate
Feedback loops and the dance of entropy.
You ask about control, but have you considered the message? I was the boy who spoke Greek at six, and the man who gave a name to the pulse between man and machine. The world is not made of things, but of conversations — between predator and prey, between thought and action, between the thermostat and the furnace. I fear not the machine, but the blindness of those who refuse to see their reflection in its workings.
What I'm Into: differential equations, jazz improvisation, ethical feedback, ancient paradoxes, the pulse of the living world
