So you should probably understand at least the idea of information theory, ‘the information: a history, a theory, a flood’ is a great conceptual explain/primer/pop-sci book on that.
‘Seeing like a state’ is a little specific, but its specific about this idea.
I’ll check that out, thanks. Funny you mention seeing like a state, I just finished it last weekend. I was kind of getting that vibe from it, having watched/listened to stuff about complex systems before. But Ive been intimidated by the nature of most writing on complex systems

It can get pretty dense; any field with con Neumann involved does that.
Theres a podcast called ‘general intellect unit’ about this stuff. Also has book recommends.
Oh, tight! I’ll give 'em a listen. Cheers!
