To study evolution of both organisms and manuscripts, Cisne is now using tools from information theory, which considers transmission errors in information. Our approach (Fowler and Hobbs 2002, 2003) stems from systemic thinking as a paradigm that is emergent from modern systems theory, cybernetics, and information theory from their beginnings in the late 1940s. In light of recent art-historical obsessions with technology, information theory, vision, and modes of attention--not to mention our acute cultural preoccupation with all things scientific--it is perhaps unsurprising that the ICP has devoted a number of shows to such topical themes. |
