Chilean publications El Ciudadano and Bits Ciencia y Sociedad have both published articles on Cybernetic Revolutionaries in the past week. Pablo de Soto of hackitectura featured the Bits article on his website How To: Revolution.

I am pleased to announce that the Spanish translation of Cybernetic Revolutionaries will be published by the Chilean press LOM Ediciones. The estimated publication date is 2013.

Wil Wiles of Icon Magazine (a UK publication for design and architecture) reviews Cybernetic Revolutionaries in the upcoming April 2012 issue. Here is an excerpt:

Medina has written a wonderful, accessible book, a thorough examination of a project that generally serves as an enigmatic aside in other histories. At times it´s quite a romp, as befits a story with an extraordinary character like Beer at its heart. And it´s a splendid introduction to Beer´s thoughts, his ideals and the history of cybernetics.

Thanks Icon!
