The Cybernetics Library is a research and practice collective that explores, examines, and critiques the history and legacy of cybernetic thought via the reciprocal embeddedness of techno-social systems and contemporary society. From this position, the projects of the Library seek to refigure and make more accessible the relationships between people, technologies, and society. These projects are manifested through activities such as community-oriented artistic installations, reading groups, technological components, workshops, and other public programs. The Library aspires to support its collaborators by serving as a connecting node for disparate communities that share intellectual or activist goals for exploring and advancing art, technology, and society. The Library internalizes and operationalizes theories of feedback and self-reflection to continually grow and evolve in its interpretation and practice of how collection materials are engaged in social spaces.
