The physical examples like Saturn's pole formation is "complex" due to its being an attractor state, I believe.
If I were doing a search for complex phenomena, which actually is a nifty idea, I'd first tweet Melanie Mitchell, or Mark Newman, or ask Stephen, but then I'd look for: - tipping points - equilibria - fractal formations - unstable systems (reverse of equilibra?) - sigmoidal graph of a variable You might like this, I'm following it: https://www.complexityexplorer.org/courses/74-introduction-to-complexity-spring-2017 Post back if you find something satisfying. -- Owen On Thu, May 25, 2017 at 8:51 AM, ┣glen┫ <geprope...@gmail.com> wrote: > > The concept of an agent is even more ill-formed than that of complexity or > emergence.
