Week 3 & 4-Expert Lecture- Stephen Wolfram and a New Kind of Science

"How does anything complicated get produced"-Stephen Wolfram, thequestion that he asks about anything in the universe. What isinterseting that Stephen says is that nature follows some kind ofrule. The conculsions that Stephen drew in 1982 were incorrect hebelieved that if something in physics or anything starts out simpleit will be simple and if it starts out complicated then well it willend up being complicated, however Stephen used a triangle formulawith a simple black cell to find out that something so simple canbecome quite complicated. Basically he came up with and found outthat some of these rules didn't follow a general rule. What Stpehenis trying to get at is that a simple cellular model can becomereally complex and it can begin to start to generate it's ownidea's. His idea quickly translates to the world, that we live innothing but space. That the particles bring up quanta mechanicssaying that it has it's own randomous and this goes into space andtime. Watching this video I didn't understand the inferences thatStephen was trying to make. I don't get how a simple cell can wellmake up or well change anything. Unless you look at it from thestand point is that we are made up from cells and if you change acell on us you are changing, well, you can pretty much changeanything. But based on the ideas that Stephen was conveying throughmathmatica I think that it was amazing how we are able to determinethose kinds of things from just a simple cell.
