The origins of 'The Ecology of the Artificial'
The timeline I have so far from the references people have given me is as
follows:
1968, Baudrillard, "The System of Objects"
1969, Simon HA, "The Science of Objects"
1972, Bateson, "Steps to an Ecology of Mind"
1978, Boulding KE, "Ecodynamics: A New Theory of Societal Evolution"
1988, Branzi "Learning from Milan: Design and the Second Modernity"
1989, Krippendorff, "On the Essential Contexts of Artifacts or on the
Proposition that 'Design is Making Sense (of Things)'"
1990, "The Munich Design Charter"
1990, Manzini, "Artifacts. Verso una nuova ecologia dell'ambiente
artificiale"
1992, Manzini "Prometheus of the Everyday: The Ecology of the Artificial and
the Designer's Responsibility"
1993, Pantzar P, "Do Commodities reproduce themselves through human beings,
towards an ecology of goods"
