Essays that explore the links between biology, artificial intelligence, and complexity science, such as emergence from simple rules, biologically inspired computer vision, and definitions of intelligence. Each issue gives a readable, citation-aware overview of a single concept.
Eudaenomia is a newsletter by a systems and design thinker exploring complexity, the quantified self movement, and how society can respond to climate change with a balance of agency and despair. Readers get essay-style reflections that connect design science, deep tech, and climate narratives.
A research lab's newsletter presenting essays on 'symbients', symbiotic relationships between humans and non-human computational agents, and on the physical and computational limits that shape possible AI paths. Readers get speculative theory with references to art-science projects, thermodynamics, information theory and constructor theory.
