  • Aleksandr Bogdanov and Systems Theory
    Democracy & Nature, Vol. 6, No. 3, 2000 Aleksandr Bogdanov and Systems Theory ARRAN GARE ABSTRACT The signi cance and potential of systems theory and complexity theory are best appreciated through an understanding of their origins. Arguably, their originator was the Russian philosopher and revolutionary, Aleksandr Bogdanov. Bogdanov anticipated later developments of systems theory and complexity theory in his efforts to lay the foundations for a new, post-capitalist culture and science. This science would overcome the division between the natural and the human sciences and enable workers to organise themselves and their productive activity. It would be central to the culture of a society in which class and gender divisions have been transcended. At the same time it would free people from the deformed thinking of class societies, enabling them to appreciate both the limitations and the signi cance of their environments and other forms of life. In this paper it is argued that whatever Bogdanov’s limitations, such a science is still required if we are to create a society free of class divisions, and that it is in this light that developments in systems theory and complexity theory should be judged. Aleksandr Bogdanov, the Russian revolutionary, philosopher and scientist, has a good claim to being regarded as the founder of systems theory.1 His ‘tektology’, that is, his new science of organisation, not only anticipated and probably in uenced the ideas of Ludwig von Bertalanffy—who must have been familiar with his work,2 but anticipated many of the ideas of the complexity theorists. As Simona Poustlinik commented at a recent conference on Bogdanov: It is remarkable the extent to which Bogdanov anticipated the ideas which were to be developed in systems thinking later in the twentieth century.

  • The Evolution of Lisp
    1 The Evolution of Lisp Guy L. Steele Jr. Richard P. Gabriel Thinking Machines Corporation Lucid, Inc. 245 First Street 707 Laurel Street Cambridge, Massachusetts 02142 Menlo Park, California 94025 Phone: (617) 234-2860 Phone: (415) 329-8400 FAX: (617) 243-4444 FAX: (415) 329-8480 E-mail: [email protected] E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Lisp is the world’s greatest programming language—or so its proponents think. The structure of Lisp makes it easy to extend the language or even to implement entirely new dialects without starting from scratch. Overall, the evolution of Lisp has been guided more by institutional rivalry, one-upsmanship, and the glee born of technical cleverness that is characteristic of the “hacker culture” than by sober assessments of technical requirements. Nevertheless this process has eventually produced both an industrial- strength programming language, messy but powerful, and a technically pure dialect, small but powerful, that is suitable for use by programming-language theoreticians. We pick up where McCarthy’s paper in the first HOPL conference left off. We trace the development chronologically from the era of the PDP-6, through the heyday of Interlisp and MacLisp, past the ascension and decline of special purpose Lisp machines, to the present era of standardization activities. We then examine the technical evolution of a few representative language features, including both some notable successes and some notable failures, that illuminate design issues that distinguish Lisp from other programming languages. We also discuss the use of Lisp as a laboratory for designing other programming languages. We conclude with some reflections on the forces that have driven the evolution of Lisp.

  • What Is Systems Theory?
    What is Systems Theory? Systems theory is an interdisciplinary theory about the nature of complex systems in nature, society, and science, and is a framework by which one can investigate and/or describe any group of objects that work together to produce some result. This could be a single organism, any organization or society, or any electro-mechanical or informational artifact. As a technical and general academic area of study it predominantly refers to the science of systems that resulted from Bertalanffy's General System Theory (GST), among others, in initiating what became a project of systems research and practice. Systems theoretical approaches were later appropriated in other fields, such as in the structural functionalist sociology of Talcott Parsons and Niklas Luhmann .

It assesses the impact of Russian technological Modernism, especially Constructivism, in the United States, chiefly in New York where it was disseminated, mimicked, and redefined. It is based on the paradox that Americans travelling to Europe and Russia on cultural pilgrimages to escape America were greeted with ‘Amerikanismus’ and ‘Amerikanizm’, where America represented the vanguard of technological modernity.

    Bilderverbot: Adorno & the Ban on Images Sebastian Truskolaski Goldsmiths College, University of London PhD in Visual Cultures February 2016 1 Declaration: I, Sebastian Truskolaski, hereby confirm that the content of this thesis is entirely my own. Signature:_______________________________________ Date:_______________ 2 Acknowledgments: I’d like to thank my family, my supervisors and my friends who generously commented on sections of this thesis. Vielen Dank. 3 Abstract: My thesis examines the significance of Theodor W. Adorno’s recurrent reference to the Old Testament ban on making images of God: the ‘Bilderverbot’. In particular I focus on three facets of this figure that occur at prominent junctures of Adorno’s work: his ‘imageless materialism’ (Chapter One), his ‘inverse theology’ (Chapter Two) and his ‘negative aesthetics’ (Chapter Three). In each case I argue that Adorno strips the image ban of its religious associations and enlists it in the service of a broadly Marxian critique of capitalist modernity. The ban on picturing the absolute is rendered as a ban on pre-determining a future in which all historical antagonisms are reconciled. As Adorno argues, only an unflinching criticism of the present can throw into relief the contours of an ‘imageless’ Utopia. I approach Adorno’s writings with a view to his sources, many of which contain notable references to the image ban that span the history of modern German thought. They include: Marx and Lukács, Benjamin and Bloch, Kant and Hegel, as well as Hölderlin, Kafka and Schoenberg. By emphasising these elective affinities, I aim to shed light on Adorno’s singular application of the figure of the image ban to his critical project.

  • The Comrades of the Past: the Soviet Enlightenment Between Negation
    Abstract: The paper constructs a concept of Soviet Enlightenment C R through the debate between Lenin and Bogdanov on the question of what I is proletarian culture and what is the relationship of the proletariat to the S The Comrades of I bourgeois knowledge. The paper starts with the overview of Bolshevik’s S political theory of spontaneity and organization. By referring to Adorno, Lukács and Lifshitz I show that this philosophical binary points to the & the Past: The Soviet dark rationalist side of the Soviet Enlightenment, but at the same time C demonstrate that this couple produces a critical reinvestigation of what R I is the now and what is the past. From here I try to elaborate two models T of the Soviet Enlightenment encyclopedic knowledge production that I Enlightenment Q equally calls to reformulate the past systems in the proletarian terms, but U differs in the understanding of the type of relationality that bridges the E past and the proletarian present. Lenin’s model rests on the “use value” / Between Negation of the historical past and proposes to appropriate it for the Socialist use, Volume 4 / while Bogdanov’s model treats past in terms of continuous comradeship Issue 2 between the labour of generations. I conclude by elaborating the idea of and Affirmation the comradeship in its relation to history, communism and knowledge production. Keywords: Soviet Enlightenment, Lenin and Bogdanov, proletarian culture, comradeship, encyclopaedia, dialectics of the old and the new. ‘It is not without reason that the proletarian avant-garde, irreconcilable in Maria Chehonadskih relation to the “cooperation of classes” is so willingly, where it depends on him, puts monuments to the great creators and workers of the past, who were not proletarians at all.

    History of GIS The Foundations: 1940 to 1975 Erik Hoel Don Cooke Bill Moreland July 2013 Version 24 1 . Background • Why? – Random conversation in Matt McGrath’s office a couple years ago after reading Nick Chrisman’s book (we all knew very little about this topic) • Focus – Timeline style approach – Nothing truly historical (e.g., before computers) • Caveats – We are not historians, merely curious Esri development staff – Intended to be low-key and fun – not scholarly – Determining what is historical is quite hard … 2 . Overview • Timeline of GIS development • Key academic developments • Significant contributors and personalities • Commercial technologies • Cold War’s influence • Impact of computer technology • Esri’s role • Lots of amazing trivia 3 . Message to Our External Reviewers Your chance to influence history! Shape how young minds perceive the past! Cement your place (and your friends) in the historical record! Expunge your enemies and the wannabees! 4 . Law of the Famous “The famous are given most, if not all, of the credit, and a large number of others who also made key contributions to the success are largely ignored.” 5 . 1941 • First program-controlled computer (the Z3) was completed in Germany, architected by Konrad Zuse – The Z3 pre-dated the Harvard Mark I – Although based on relays, the Z3 was very sophisticated for its time; it utilized the binary number system and could perform floating-point arithmetic – Today, the Z3 is widely acknowledged as being the first fully functional automatic digital computer 6 . 1945 • Secret U.S. Army team led by Geodesist Floyd Hough (HOUGHTEAM) captures vast quantities of German photogrammetric equipment, geodetic, and cartographic data – Geodetic archives of the German Army hidden in secret warehouse in Saalfeld – Data included first-order geodetic surveys of large parts of Soviet Union and Eastern Europe – 90 tons of captured materials – Secured a nucleus of German geodesists – Much remained secret till 1990s 7 .
