In this article, we want to demonstrate that data acquisition and processing are not only technical and information problem, but that they have to fulfil some sociological aspects, too.The data acquisition and processing is the part of a cybernetic system.

However, by perpetuating it we lose a fundamental sense of the activity – it becomes incomprehensible and ‘art for art’s sake’.
