constituent chemicals. It takes a Darwinian
amount of time to get higher-evolved life forms, but it eventually happens.

This property of matter to spontaneously become more complex is called
negentropy (negative entropy), and it means 'matter formatted by information'.

* We human beings mean more than the few-pence-worth of our chemical
* constituents, because information *informs* those component chemicals
* by means of a genetic blueprint.

* Life itself is a negentropy pump. The universe means more than a

We have a lot of different kinds of cells in our bodies; hair, bone, eye,
brain, toenail, teeth, lung, skin... And they all started from ONE CELL.
And they all knew where to go and which type to become. And how to operate
together in a large complex system.

A single cell, in its DNA strands, holds a MASSIVE AMOUNT OF INFORMATION.

Every cell in our body is structured by information, the DNA helix.

This information structuring is why we don't just splash to the
ground in a muddy puddle of our constituent chemicals.

We are matter structured by information.

Whew!

Cybernetics is VERY heavy-duty stuff.

It can yield the ULTIMATE in control.

It can be applied to controlling people in a society.

Cybernetic control of society.

The 'arousal filter' Stafford Beer and his cyberneticians
set up was effectively keyword monitoring of traffic.

When you use keywords to either select or exclude traffic, each step
is a 'filter' step. If you make it past
