After ten years of teaching in Zűrich he became a Swiss citizen and went in 1955 as a visiting fellow to M.I.T., Cambridge, Mass., for studies of Cybernetics with N. Wiener and as visiting guest to the Institute for Advanced Studies in Princeton which gave occasion to meet R. J. Oppenheimer and to visit J. v. Neumann in Washington for scientific-philosophic discussions.

His publications range from the epistemological foundations of mathematics and physics to symptomatic discussions of developments in the field of science.
