Biographical Info: Judith (Jude) Lombardi, a social worker by trade decided to explore cybernetics while searching for radical ways of thinking about thinking and being human. In 1992 while working on a PhD in Human Relations and Cybernetics (Humane Cybernetics), Lombardi attended her first American Society for Cybernetics conference. Over the last 20 years, with video camera in hand, she has recorded a variety of cybernetic activities, interviews and ASC conferences. Dr. Lombardi taught sociology at a university in Baltimore Maryland USA. She retired from the university several years ago so that she might devote more of her time to her video documentation and research. Her current work entails writing and video-making that focuses on “social” transformations as a praxis for living. Judy Lombardi was treasurer of the ASC during the mid 1990s, a member of the planning committee for the 1993 ASC conference in Philadelphia, as well as the 1997 conference in Champaign Urbana, IL.
