Writing on the New Dynamical Science and Its Implications
The new world view exposed by scientific study in nonlinear dynamics, complex systems, and their emergent properties has arisen from many specific areas of research. Some of the scientists involved has provided generally accessible descriptions of this highly technical work and its stunning implications. A few of these authors are listed below with quotations that give you some sense of how differently they now perceive reality.
Writing on Art, Aesthetics, and Perception that Resemble the New Science
Once one has engaged the basic concepts of the new scientific world view, many ideas encountered in reading art theory and criticism take on added significance. Like modern art itself, writing about art often attempts to describe the role and affects of artistic expression in ways analogous to the strange dynamics now revealed by science.
