Organization and information in Simondon’s theory of individuation

This article explores the notions of organization and information in Gilbert Simondon’s theory of individuation. It confronts these notions with ideas from cybernetics and especially Alan Turing’s work. The ‘universal machine’ opens new ways of understanding the relations between humans and machines, and highlights an impasse in Simondon’s theory. These concepts act as precursors to post-structuralist philosophy and Gilles Deleuze’s oeuvre.Fil: Rodriguez, Pablo Esteban. Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas; Argentina.
