I really like how you write about cybernetics! One of my projects is trying to combine neocybernetics with behavioral psych and special education. The idea of common cybernetics is really cool.

Thank you!

That sounds really cool! Would love to know more

I used to work with SEN kids for a couple of years and am really interested in education myself

Glad you enjoyed! More soon

That's awesome! Right now I'm working through writing out some essays where I use cybernetics to provide an explanation for the success of things like ABA. Behavior psych historically eschewed explanatory methods and instead cared solely about the effectiveness. My thought process is that people like von Foerster and Maturana provide a foundation for being able to explain the different processes. It's fun!
