Think of competition, of predators and parasites. Perhaps Omnet, a small, once unconnected net that tries to survive by using the main Internet, is a parasite. We also see ecosystem dynamics in the single bits of cyberspace. Cyberspace is a singularity. Now we are neither clever nor comfortable in dealing with singularities.
Science lives in cyberspace.
If science has to do with people computing, then it lives in cyberspace. Indeed, we could say cyberspace is the habitat of science where science is done. Cyberspace the whole system interacts with its parts, its communities. It may have emerged in the first place as a result of interactions between science and technology when they were separate things . . . Science, as part of cyberspace, is now different science, just as is every one of the communities that came together to form cyberspace and that are now subsumed by it.
