Peter Weibel: From Simulation to Stimulation

Genetic algorhythms already enable the simulation of both natural as well as technical processes of construction in reality. In medicine and cosmology, visual simulation has become an indispensable tool. By using Josephson’s contact theory, in the future it will be possible to link together technical and biological systems. By the controlled stimulation of processes in the human body and with the aid of »intelligent agents«, the functions of the molecular world of the body will be adopted, and, consequently, the systems of molecular biology made useful for molecular electronics.
