Cybernetics
- Read something by Wiener, e.g. "Rigidity and Learning" in The Human Use of Human Beings.
- Pay much more attention to learning
- Connect learning and evolution early on
- Read only two essays by Bateson, on art and learning
- Read only Rapport 1971
- For L-S 1955, read only the middle -- exclude the set up (requires knowledge of history of anth) and the Zuni stuff (way too complicated)
Postmodernity
- Put Lyotard before Suchman, et al. → the latter follow closely the sporit of his recommendations
- Emphasize cyberpunk ... de Certeu?
- Focus on Community -- have students read Rheigolds, The Virtual Community
