“It’s a simple complex system. That’s the technical name for it. Because it’s simple, it’s prone to cascades, and because it’s complex, you can’t…

The computing scientist's main challenge is not to get confused by the complexities of his own making.

— Edsger Dijkstra

“There is an unseen dynamic world in and around us that scientists have only just started to scratch its surface. It is a massive…

“By any objective standard, the theory of computational complexity ranks as one of the greatest intellectual achievements of humankind -- along with fire, the…

— Scott Aaronson

I would suggest, merely as a metaphor here, but also as the basis for a scientific program to investigate the computational capacity of the…

It turns out that information leaks between universes at the quantum level. We think it accounts for all kinds of phenomena, from what drives…

— James P. Hogan

“Yet once biologists concluded that organisms are algorithms, they dismantled the wall between the organic and the inorganic, turned the computer revolution from a…

“the personal, and becomes entirely abstract and computational.”

— Oliver Sacks

The feature of living matter that most demands explanation is that it is almost unimaginably complicated in directions that convey a powerful illusion of…
