Rosen and the Laws of Form

[Steve Johnson <***>]

 

I notice that G. Spencer Brown's Laws of Form is listed on the panmere Rosen site. Did RR ever comment on Laws of Form?

 

I do not claim to understand Laws of Form's philosophical aspects but one connection I could think of is Spencer Brown's claim that Time emerges in his purely formal world (based only on the concept of distiniction) via construction of self-referential statement.

 

I heard that Varela used Laws of Form calculus in something related Autopoesis but I do not know enough about that to comment.
