Antipoiesis: sin nombre
There is an autopoiesis translated as a self producing system.
Logically, if there can be an autopoiesis, then there can be an antipoiesis. It is a matter of having two eyes not one!
In an approach termed General Systems Theory Squared (Lindblom), antipoiesis is not an antithesis for autopoiesis but an equivalence. It is, of course, a binocular theory, not a unity but a duality!
Lindblom
Regarding Einstein: "...the principle that the observable local effects of a gravitational field are indistinguishable from those arising from acceleration of the frame of reference."

This website (hopefully) shall take you through a non-linear transport to hidden worlds never before glimpsed OR will illustrate some of the history of a possible construction: antipoiesis!
Thanks to life, which has given me so much
It has given me two eyes, and when I open them
I clearly distinguish black from white
And in the high sky, its starry depths,
And from the crowds, the man that I love.

AUTOPOIESIS:
the process whereby an organization produces itself.
An autopoietic organization is an autonomous and self-maintaining unity which contains component-producing processes. The components, through their interaction, generate recursively the same network of processes which produced them. An autopoietic system is operationally closed and structurally state determined with no apparent inputs and outputs. A cell, an organism, and perhaps a corporation are examples of autopoietic systems.
See allopoiesis. (F. Varela)

Antipoetry:
Parra, Nicanorb. Sept. 5, 1914, San Fabian, Chile
one of the most important Latin-American poets of his time, the originator of so-called antipoetry (poetry that opposes traditional poetic techniques or styles).
Parra studied mathematics and physics at the University of Chile in Santiago, at Brown University, Providence, R.I., U.S. (1943-45), and at the University of Oxford. From 1952 he taught theoretical physics at the University of Chile.

chronos
In Santiago, Chile
The days are interminably long:
Several eternities in a day.
Like the vendors of seaweed
Travelling on the backs of mules:
You yawn - you yawn again.
Yet the weeks are short
The months go racing by
And the years have wings.
