Complexity

One of the most important question for sciences today to answer are questions around the nature of complexity, i.e. systems with a large amount of different parts and the quality and quantity of their interactions. Some interesting links on this

Maybe all physical laws could be derived from more hidden forms of complex algorithms... As Richard Feynman is suggesting in "The Character of Physical Law": "Suppose that physics, or rather nature, is considered analogous to a great chess game with millions of pieces in it, and we are trying to discover the laws by which the pieces move. The great gods who play this chess play it very rapidly, and it is hard to watch and difficult to see. However, we are catching on to some of the rules, and there are some rules which we can work out which do not require that we watch every move."
