The autopoietic system "organizes its environment as part of itself [and] if we put ourselves "inside" such systems we come to realize that we are within a closed system of interaction and that the environment is part of the system's organization because it is part of its domain of essential interaction ... a system's transactions with an environment are really transactions within itself"

"From an autopoietic standpoint random variation provides the seed of possibility that allows the emergence and evolution of new system identities. Random changes can trigger interactions that reverberate throughout the system"
