CAM - ...self-creating artform, in which human beings are their own media...

But cybernetics and architecture really enjoy a much more

intimate relationship; they share a common philosophy of architecture in the sense that Stafford Beer has shown it to be the philosophy of operational research.

control systems and consequently design is control ofcontrol, i.e. the designer docs much the same job as his system, but be operates lit a higher level in the organization::~! hierarchy.

*if such an embodiment has underspecified goals, it enables us to collaborate and converge on shared goals. We are able to affect both the embodiment’s response and the way the response is computed.

*This is a completely different notion of interaction from that used in many of today’s so-called interactive systems, which are premised on unproductive and prespecified circular, deterministic reactions.

*It is about designing tools that people themselves may use to construct – in the widest sense of the word – their environments and as a result build their own sense of agency.

’Man is always aiming to achieve some goal and he is always looking for new goals.' (Pask)
