Before the ocean was, or earth, or heaven,
Nature was all alike, a shapelessness,
Chaos, so-called, all rude [ruse] and lumpy matter,
Nothing but bulk, inert, in whose confusion
Discordant atoms warred:
‘The Creation’ by Ovid (43 B.C. – 17 A.D.)
Nature has been a sole teacher in every aspect throughout the coarse of history. Where else a man would look for inspiration than Nature? For ages, reseach in specialized disciplines quenched human thirst for knowledge till they reached their critical threshold and bifurcated into series of inquiries, questioning the boundaries of the disciplines themselves. This curiosity provoked investigation which made possible the inter-disciplinary knowledge exchange, advancement in computation and mapping technologies thus leading mankind to a world that was far more complex than the clockwork universe which newtonion laws predicted, and the study of these non–linear dynamics gave rise to theories like complexity and chaos.
Emergence, the spontaneous creation of order and functionality from the bottom up, is all around us. If we look at the physical world, we can see emergent patterns everywhere, spiral galaxies, our own solar system, even the giant red spot on the surface of Jupiter. All of these are emergent phenomena. On our own planet, we see emergent structures everywhere, mountains and rivers take wondrous shapes, animal and plants exhibit beautiful patterns. Even inside us, our body is made up of nervous system, skeletal systems. Each of this system is comprised of small structures, Cells, which interact in such a way that they create something emergent which is more than the sum of their parts.
‘How these wonders of creation are assembled from such simple building blocks? How same laws that turn nature chaotic can also turn simple dust into living human being? How cells that start identical, known to become skin or eyes? How can a simple system that works in a regular manner, becomes unpredictable?'
