Cybernetics in 2026: A Conversation in the Round
Sunday, March 15, 2026 12:00 PM EDT
What does cybernetics mean to you — right now, in 2026?
At our March Speaker Series meeting, we turned the speaker spotlight on everyone. Instead of a single speaker, we opened the floor for a roundtable conversation where each participant is invited to share their perspective for about two minutes.
We went around the Zoom room, and anyone who wishes to speak is welcome to. Whether you’re a longtime practitioner, a newcomer to the field, or somewhere in between — your voice matters in shaping what cybernetics is becoming.
Peter Tuddenham, ASC Trustee, facilitated the discussion.
Participants Bio
Peter Tuddenham is a Trustee of the American Society for Cybernetics, which has served as a hub bridging art, architecture, and technology since 1964. His work centers on conversation as a cybernetic practice — exploring how knowledge emerges through dialogue and participatory engagement. As facilitator of “Cybernetics in the Round,” he brings a commitment to the principle that collective inquiry, where every voice shapes the conversation, is itself cybernetics in action.
