(NLI Note)
Self-Organizing – In both embodiment and the physics chapters I have not adequately explained that the result of the discovery of opportunities and cooperation between assemblies (cells etc) to seize those opportunities, produces ‘self organizing’ behavior as a result. This term is well understood, particularly in economics, which does operationalize the reasons why (Incentives and exchanges) humans produce self organizing.
However, outside of economics we require the work in this volume to explain what we currently know of self organizing – though as Michael Levin has pointed out we aren’t sure exactly how bioelectric cooperation between cells produces body form (though I suspect I could enumerate possible ways and that they’d be be small in number and likely obvious (polarity, accumulated bias in charge).
So we’ll have to go through the two chapters and ensure that we’ve tied the disciplines together with the use of that term.
Why did we miss it? I think because we were so concerned about integration of the inputs transformations and outputs that we didn’t tie the disciplines together with the term.
Cheers
