The central conference is framed by a pre- conference meeting including tutorials of an introductory and exploratory nature, introducing and working with cybernetic concepts, and a post-conference workshop celebrating the centenary of Heinz von Foerster (who founded the society) and Ernst von Glasersfeld (who died just before Christmas 2010) where we will study selected papers with others who share curiosity about their work.
The central conference is scheduled 11 to 13 August, inclusive, The pre- conference will be 9 to 10 August, and the post-conference will be 14 to 15 August. The registration fee is for the central conference. The pre- and post-conference events are free to those attending the central conference.
