Introduction: special double issue of Kybernetes on cybernetics and design
Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this editorial is to reach out to an audience that Kybernetes has not previously tried to reach – designers – in an effort to build a bridge connecting cybernetics and design.
Design/methodology/approach
Provides a brief review of the papers within the issue.
Findings
The collection of papers may provoke wonder, enquiry, and a wish not only to respect each field, but also to open up, to find out more and, perhaps, to enter into a symbiotic bridge building operation that might bring valuable theoretical illumination and realm of practice to both fields.
Originality/value
This editorial introduces an exploration that begins to develop any relationships that might exist between the two fields of design and cybernetics.
