We said earlier that the Seventh Sense is tuned to spot the unsettling ripples that come from this fact: Connection changes the nature of an object. Doctors and voters and machines now sit, we’ve seen, on that stretched skin that links central and distributed power. This changes...

Reading Assignments Day 1: Introduction Welcome! We aspire to the implausible: a nine-day introduction to the unusual dynamics of the world’s digital space, sufficient for a strategic understanding of what makes it difficult (but far from impossible) to regulate or shape; who’s...
86 4 Brief Survey of Cognitive Architectures The LIDA cognitive cycle itself is a theoretical construct that can be implemented in many ways, and indeed other BICAs like CogPrime and Psi also manifest the LIDA cognitive cycle in their dynamics, though utilizing different particu...

Terrorism, we have to understand, is merely one example of network danger and power. So is China. And Russia. And these may not even be the most dangerous or devastating network battles that will take place in our lives. It’s a commonplace to say now that the international system...
Nonetheless, historical comments about what the classical thermodynamic term, entropy, is and is not about are in order. We recall that Richard Feynmann, in his well-known 1962 class notes, Lectures on Physics, said that the subject of thermodynamics is the study of relationshi...
