Cybernetic Revolutionaries

After more then three decades the project Cybersyn or SYNCO has gained interest among researchers in systems theory, cybernetics, economics, management, media theory and design. The material and immaterial interface of this system has been developed, from 1971-1973, in Chile by the Group of Product Development at the National Institute for Technology Research (INTEC). Part of the visual material, including the illustration on the cover of the book, has been provided from my archive (drawings, digitalized slides). The industrial design and graphic design aspects will be published in the Spanish version of the book Diseño y Crisis (Campgràfic, Valencia, 2012), and in the book Design como prática de projeto (Editora Blucher, São Paulo, 2012).
