The cybernetics of language

ing these farms. I suggest the possibility of &g. 'saying something in the form of interpretation', what I have in mind might be clumsily circumscribed as the arrangement of descriptions (or things) in some configuration which, corresponding to (or fitting) the form of an actual act of interpretation, may facilitate the event of such an act. Clearly such an arrangement is made in an act of its own form (i. e. the form of a description). However, where It succded&s, it 'transcends' this form, in the sense that the act of arranging becomes Irrelevant for invisible). Examples of such 'arrangements' range from poetry (to the understanding of which the 'interpretation' of its component parts Is irrelevant and at best a 'ladder') to social Institutions (in which the source of a sense of 'institutional identity' is often invisible, eq. the "AA"i 'Fleet 8tre. t") to folklore and what Rappaport (1968) has described as 'ritual regulation'. ) see also 'any' 'coincidence' and 'prescriptive'.
