Cybernetics and You! | Drew Morgan | TEDxMacatawa

From cruise control to kidneys to the Federal Reserve, every stable system runs on the same hidden architecture: cybernetics. Drew Morgan breaks down four core concepts (feedback, feed forward, lag, and saturation) and shows how to use them to build steadier systems at work and in life. Drew is a Park Township based engineer, maker, and sometimes artist who has also lived in the South and on the other (salty) West coast. He enjoys the intersection of the profound with the absurd. He strives for delightful form and satisfying function in everything he does, especially when it’s unexpected. He spends his time working for Disher Engineering in Zeeland, pursuing curiosity, tinkering, and exploring West Michigan with his wife and two daughters. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
