HYPERBODIES: Complex Adaptive Dynamic Multi-Agent Systems (CADMAS) as Self-Sufficient Sustainable Environments of Inhabitance (SS SEI)

ABSTRACT:
Considering the question of sustainability and not only focusing in bio-climatic matters, a way of approaching this problem would be generating Complex Dynamic Adaptive Multi-Agent Systems (CADMAS) as environments of inhabitance. Not only because of the properties and characteristics mentioned in the paper of adaptive systems; able to shift and automatically adapt to their environmental conditions as represented in the work of Kas Oosterhuis. but also as a potential to grow by auto-re-generating processes. The much referenced term of ‘hyperbody’ used typically to describe a situation between the digital and the real, we feel is perhaps better suited to a concept of self sufficient sustainability, based on the CADMAS principal. This is the basis of sustainability in terms of self-sufficiency defined as ‘auto-poiesis’ (Maruyama 1963). The paper develops principals of this ‘hyperbody’ and through discussion of Complex Adaptive, Emergent, Auto-Reproductive and Auto-Organizational Systems, suggests principals for how a new kind of sustainable architecture might be derived.
