[1]Principia Cybernetica Web

                         Welcome to Principia Cybernetica Web

   Principia Cybernetica tries to tackle [2]age-old philosophical questions with the
   help of the most recent cybernetic theories and technologies.
     ____________________________________________________________________________

   This is the [3]website of the Principia Cybernetica Project (PCP), an
   [4]international organization. The Project aims to develop a complete philosophy
   or "[5]world-view", based on the principles of [6]evolutionary cybernetics, and
   supported by collaborative computer technologies. To get started, there is an
   [7]introduction with background and motivation, and an [8]overview, summarizing
   the project as a whole.
