Digital Analysis of a Form - André Oksas

In 1961, George Spencer-Brown, as Chief Logic Designer of the electronic component manufacturer Mullard Equipment Limited, introduced the mark "cross" in his typescript Design with the NOR as a simplified notation for the standard logic gate NOR of that time. Against this background, modern methods of circuit design can be applied to re-entry forms from Laws of Form. Using the Modulator as an example, the talk shows how such re-entry forms can be analyzed and their behavior described using methods and tools of discrete mathematics. The analysis uses the theory of finite, deterministic automata in the transformation of the structure of the Modulator given in Chapter 11 into its behavioral description by means of automata graphs. Both basal set operations and special set operations of the Boolean Differential Calculus are used to compute the re-entry forms. Finally, an animated simulation of the Modulator is presented.

André Oksas is a Research Fellow of the Next Society Institute at Kazimieras Simonavičius University in Vilnius, Lithuania, and lives in Munich, Germany. He studied electrical engineering and information technology with a focus on digital circuit design and spent more than twenty-five years in various technological and managerial positions in information technology. His current research topics are the systems theory of Niklas Luhmann and the work of George Spencer-Brown.
