Synopsis "Cybernetics for the 21st Century Vol. 1: Epistemological Reconstruction"

Cybernetics for the 21st Century Vol.1 is dedicated to the epistemological reconstruction of cybernetics, consisting of a series of historical and critical reflections on the subject - which according to Martin Heidegger marked the completion of Western metaphysics. In this anthology, historians, philosophers, sociologists and media studies scholars explore the history of cybernetics from Leibniz to artificial intelligence and machine learning, as well as the development of twentieth-century cybernetics in various geographical regions in the world, from the USA to the Soviet Union, Latin America, France, Poland, China and Japan. The reconstruction shows the various paths of cybernetics and their socio-political implications, which remain unfamiliar to us today. It reveals more than what we thought we knew -- and yet we hardly know - and allows us to understand where we are and to reflect on the future of technology, ecology and planetary politics. With texts by Brunella Antomarini, Slava Gerovitch, Daisuke Harashima, N. Katherine Hayles, Yuk Hui, Dylan Levi King, Michal Krzykawski, David Maulen de los Reyes, Andrew Pickering, Dorion Sagan and Mathieu Triclot.

Yuk Hui (許煜) es un filósofo hongkonés especializado en filosofía de la tecnología y pensamiento contemporáneo. Formado en ingeniería informática en la Universidad de Hong Kong y doctorado en filosofía en Goldsmiths, Universidad de Londres, desarrolló su investigación bajo la influencia del filósofo Bernard Stiegler. A lo largo de su carrera académica ha enseñado en diversas universidades europeas y asiáticas, y se ha consolidado como una de las voces más influyentes en el debate actual sobre tecnología, cultura y sociedad. Su trabajo explora la relación entre sistemas técnicos, historia del pensamiento y transformación digital.

Entre sus obras más conocidas se encuentran On the Existence of Digital Objects, The Question Concerning Technology in China: An Essay in Cosmotechnics, Recursivity and Contingency, Art and Cosmotechnics y Máquina y soberanía. En estos textos desarrolla conceptos como cosmotécnica y tecnodiversidad, con los que propone repensar la tecnología más allá de una visión universal dominada por la modernidad occidental. En Máquina y soberanía examina el impacto político y filosófico de la tecnología contemporánea y plantea la necesidad de un pensamiento “planetario” capaz de afrontar desafíos como la inteligencia artificial, las crisis ecológicas y los nuevos conflictos globales.
