by email > me: i guess what i have had to say to you that if we want ppl to except the results/the emerging things from computer model of social phenomena, we need to say that this model has its truth in specific frame of thinking, ie. post structural/deleuzian >> self organising >> autopoiesis (try to narrow it down)
so this frame of thinking may not work for your example to jump out the window :-D


by email > p: you are right, jumping out of the window was a stupid example, and certainly not within our frame of thinking. I would say that autopoesis is the main thing. Its all a bit difficult, but it is encouraging that some simple programs can provide enough complexity to provide an excuse for such philosophical musings.
