Dualism (cybernetics)
Dualism in cybernetics is the idea by Norbert Wiener, one of the founding fathers of cybernetics, that there exists a fundamental division between information and matter or energy. == Background == Dualism in cybernetics emerged from the notion that there is another form of dualism besides the classical mind-matter dualism and this is the form-matter variant first proposed by the philosopher Anaxagoras and further developed by Plato and Aristotle.
