Humerto Maturana, a Chilean professor and a brilliant man, creator of the concept of autopoiesis died today at 92 years of age. He was Dixie´s, my eldest daughter´s and my own professor in different moments of our lives. The world loses a great man

@thislittlepennyearns I agree. He even befriended the Dalai Lama.

Many people are sorry here. Three days of official morning days have been decreed by the biggest university in my country.

He had live a long life but he's not really gone. He'll continue to 'live' with the knowledge that he passed to others.
