Nature by Numbers


NATURE BY NUMBERS from Cristóbal Vila on Vimeo.

A fine film. Very dense. I think you could run it at one tenth the speed, not lose your attention and absorb a lot more. Kind of reminds me of Wolfram's celluar automata in his book A New Kind of Science, except the movie does in three minutes what Wolfram takes a thousand pages to explain. OK, I'm being unfair. I read a few pages of the book once. I wasn't impressed. I couldn't decide whether Wolfram was a genius or an idiot.
