Mark presents on von Foerster’s concept of Eigenbehavior

“Eigenvalues have been found ontologically to be discrete, stable and composable, while ontogenically to arise as equilibria that determine themselves through circular processes. Ontologically Eigenvalues and objects, and likewise, ontogenically stable behaviors and manifestations of a subject’s “grasp” of an object can not be distinguished. In both cases, ‘objects’ appear to reside exclusively in the subject’s own experience of his/her sensory-motor coordinations, that is, ‘objects’ appear to be exclusively subjective?”
