Institute for Applied Autopoiesis and Operational Closure

The Institute for Applied Autopoiesis and Operational Closure explores how systems, like living organisms or complex machines, maintain themselves through self-creation and internal consistency. Autopoiesis means "self-production," where a system continually regenerates its components to sustain its identity. Operational closure refers to the idea that a system operates within its own network of processes, making it autonomous from its environment. Together, these concepts help us understand how systems preserve their structure and functions independently, providing insights into biological life, organizational behavior, and adaptive technologies.
