    Contemporary Cybernetic Performativity in the Life Sciences

    This workshop will be devoted to the relations that currently link cybernetics to the life sciences. There is ample evidence of the existence of these links in the historiographical literature, from the inception of cybernetics in Northern America (Heims) as well as in Europe (Pickering).

    HASTEC/Cnam research program

    « Légitimations du savoir » est un programme de recherche pluridisciplinaire qui vise à réfléchir aux instruments et opérations techniques supportant les processus de construction des savoirs et en lien avec l’adéquation aux croyances, valeurs et règles des sociétés depuis l’époque moderne : autour des savoirs scientifiques, organisationnels ou plus informels, présentés dans une perspective comparative, le groupe de travail (ouvert à participation) se focalise sur le rôle socio-constructiviste des techniques matérielles et intellectuelles, les modes et régimes de la pensée opératoire. Ce programme de recherche est piloté par le laboratoire HT2S (Cnam) en partenariat avec les laboratoires DICEN-IDF (Cnam), CHT2S (Paris 1), et l’ESCP Europe. Il fait partie des projets labellisés par le LabEx HASTEC pour l’année 2014.

    Ideas in movement: the role of conflict and commerce in the history of navigation

    Following successful meetings in 2010 and 2012, Royal Museums Greenwich and the Royal Institute of Navigation are planning a third symposium to bring together current research in the history of navigation. 2014 sees the centenary of the beginning of the First World War. While this conflict provided a powerful stimulus for research and development in navigation, technological developments have also sprung from users and from commercial imperatives.
