ASC Cybernetics in the Past (6 August)

To celebrate the day of our foundation 50 years ago, eleven past presidents of the ASC have expressed their willingness to join the conference to talk about their time at the ASC, and of their dreams for cybernetics now. In effect, all our presidents since 1976 will attend, except the late Rodney Donaldson. In addition, other members who can help tell the ASC story are being invited to help us build a timeline for the society: a living history. There will be chances to met and to question in this restyled and expanded version of our “Oral Tradition”.
