Gordon Pask diagram explaining the relation between enviornment and observer.

Gordon Pask defined cyberarchitecture as a system structured by the following stages:

  1. Objectives: limits and evolution.
  2. Environmental materials.
  3. Selection of system invariants.
  4. Adaptation to the environment.
  5. Development Plan.

Pask defines the selection of invariants and the evolution of the system as a relation between its stability and its transformation.  Thus, cyberarchitecture can be understood as an open system in continuous interaction with the environment, between the system and the eco-system, whose main characteristic, complexity, requires the formation of an interdisciplinary structure.
