Reviews

Huber presents a kaleidoscopic exploration of the new interfaces between the mind and the rapidly expanding cyberous technology. His central metaphor is the evolution of self-organizing emergent complex adaptive system - Both our minds and the exploding cyber-culture on the other side of the fluid, interactive boundaries co-create each other at these multiple interfaces. Where is the mind going? What will the new mind's eye see? Huber can't tell you everything, but he points you in some of the right directions. Robert E. Horn, author of Visual Language: Global Communication for the 21st Century
