The Use and Abuse of Vegetational Concepts
All Watched Over by Machines of Loving Grace - Season 1

DESCRIPTION

This episode investigates how machine ideas such as cybernetics and systems theory were applied to natural ecosystems, and how this relates to the false idea that there is a balance of nature. Cybernetics has been applied to human beings to attempt to build societies without central control, self organising networks built of people, based on a fantasy view of nature.
