…some days, I’d like to just gather up all the tyrants, the warlords and the dictators and seal them in a glass sphere before launching it across the event horizon of a black hole. Beyond the staggering complexity and as yet non-existent infrastructure for such an arguably defensible act, it remains as a conceptually simple engineering abstraction. I can’t help but wonder in what other ways we might simulate a systems theoretical model of dynamical complexity which provides more or less the same effect as casting the brutal misanthropes of this planet into that dark and lonely hell. How, in essence, might we not only out-fight the material evil present in our world, how might we out-think it?
