This ebook presents seven articles developed from contributions to the 2018 conference of the American Society for Cybernetics (ASC), which took place during 7-12 August in Chicago, Illinois. The conference theme "e;Framing Reality and How It Matters in a Shared World"e; aimed to encourage presenters to consider how the world we share on a daily basis is socially constructed from diverse concurrently developing viewpoints and narratives.The conference theme illustrates the importance of recognizing and navigating within diverging and often conflicting narratives: "e;We each frame how we look at the world in conjunction with our assumptions, tools, models, and narratives. These frames, in turn, affect what we perceive to be our available actions"e; (American Society for Cybernetics, 2018). With every individual and every community creating and embracing different frameworks and narratives, what we recognize as "e;reality"e; is inevitably diverse. Narratives in turn influence what we pay attention to and how we choose to act. In the face of such diverse claims to what is seen to constitute "e;reality"e;, "e;we must recognize the subjectivity of our framing and learn to interrogate it. Because every individual frames her reality differently, some narratives are contradictory"e; (ibid.).Presentations at the conference discussed how, from a cybernetic perspective, the differences arising from such diverging narratives offer potential for variety and innovation rather than conflict. Becoming aware of and accommodating narratives beyond our individual selective viewpoints allows us to expand our horizons and can lead to new insights. This applies not only to personal narratives but also to disciplinary perspectives and methods of inquiry, affecting the ability of communities of scholars to interact. The conference theme implicitly also challenged conference participants to examine their own cybernetic narratives when encountering other narratives. The papers collected in this volume show cybernetics in dialogue with diverse fields which introduce their own narratives.
