They invite the Opera Ship from Old Vienna down for their amusement, and who are its illustrious passengers? You guessed it - none other than The Three Tenors, performing that South Pole favorite, Verdi's La Traviata, starring José Carreras as Alfredo, Placido Domingo as the disapproving father, and Luciano Pavarotti in the heartbreaking role of the tragic and tender Violetta.

Book The Beginning of Heaven and Earth Has No Name

Download or read book The Beginning of Heaven and Earth Has No Name written by Heinz von Foerster and published by Fordham Univ Press. This book was released on 2013-12-02 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heinz von Foerster was the inventor of second-order cybernetics, which recognizes the investigator as part of the system he is investigating. The Beginning of Heaven and Earth Has No Name provides an accessible, nonmathematical, and comprehensive overview of von Foerster’s cybernetic ideas and of the philosophy latent within them. It distills concepts scattered across the lifework of this scientific polymath and influential interdisciplinarian. At the same time, as a book-length interview, it does justice to von Foerster’s élan as a speaker and improviser, his skill as a raconteur. Developed from a week-long conversation between the editors and von Foerster near the end of his life, this work playfully engages von Foerster in developing the difference his notion of second-order cybernetics makes for topics ranging from emergence, life, order, and thermodynamics to observation, recursion, cognition, perception, memory, and communication. The book gives an English-speaking audience a new ease of access to the rich thought and generous spirit of this remarkable and protean thinker.

Book Partial Memories

Download or read book Partial Memories written by Ernst von Glasersfeld and published by Andrews UK Limited. This book was released on 2016-12-19 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Autobiographical sketches by the philosopher and semioticist Ernst von Glasersfeld. The author writes: "Memories are a personal affair. They are what comes to mind when you think back, not what might in fact have happened at that earlier time in your life. You can no longer be certain of what seemed important then, because you are now looking at the past with today's eyes. The Italian philosopher Giambattista Vico had that insight three hundred years ago: When we think of things that lie in the past, we see them in terms of the concepts we have now."
