Information and optimization go hand in hand — discovering the laws or constraints naturally governing the systems in which we live is a big part of moving toward our hearts’ desires within them.  I’m engaged in trying to clear up a few old puzzles about information at present but the dual relationship of information and control in cybernetic systems is never far from my mind.  At any rate, here’s a sampling of thoughts along those lines I thought I might add to the mix.

• If the People Rule, Then the People Must Be Wise
• Theory and Therapy of Representations • (1) • (2)
• Basal Ingredients Of Society (BIOS)
• Peirce and Democracy • (1) • (2)
