Great to finally meet Margit Rosen today and learn many things at the ZKM. Little did I realize that their care currently also extends to the 2018 reconstruction of Gordon Pask's 1967 interactive sculpture 'Colloquy of Mobiles'.

For some reason the three monograph tomes that Gordon Pask published in the 1970s are extremely hard to find: very expensive or simply not available anywhere. So after many years I am very happy I found a copy of this one from 1975.
Never got around to growing some of those Gordon Pask-style metal dendrites before, but it is fun ! Even if I read everything he wrote on the subject (I think) the process is still surprisingly lively and variable when for real.
Glad that I found a copy of this tome by Bernard Scott, long-time collaborator of Gordon Pask.

@vy There was a #GordonPask mini-conference that was attended by some #cybersyn veterans. It was saddening to listen to them talk of the hope they had in those days.
Rereading /Seeing Like a State/, I wondered if they would be been able to dodge the "high modernizing" bullet.
