Cybernetics Snacks is a speaker series of virtual bite-sized talks with leading voices in the cybernetics conversation, convened by the ANU School of Cybernetics. In 30-minute public conversations, we will invite all speakers to respond to the same four questions. In the spirit of the Ratio Club, our PhD students will then have the opportunity for an off-the-record conversation with the speaker.
