Application of Fractals in Society

What is a practical application of Fractal Geometry?

YAML 问题

I watched a movie on Fractals. It seems to me that such thinking is useful when creating new technologies. But I wonder beyond that.

我们与Struppi进行了梦幻般的探索!我们研究了作为磁铁的球体和向量,以及它们如何相互连接成稳定的结构。

笔记:

-2作为最低限度的系统(“没有别人,你就无法认识自己”)

-球体为内部/外部/边界(“人与自然之间没有边界,因为我们是共享的空气”)

-生命有多种形式(多形式)

-多中心结构(“每个人都可以成为宇宙的中心”)

-作为平衡关系的三角形(例如,微小的球体为立方体和四边形)。

我们计划继续探索并走进一步的道路:研究一下协同作用的一般原理,并想象一些实际的例子,说明如果四面体是基本结构还是立方体,那么我们的世界会是什么样(城市是什么样?社区是什么?等等)

We had a fantastic exploration with Struppi! We played with spheres and vectors as magnets, and how they connect with one another into stable structures.

Notes:

  • 2 as a minimum system ("you cannot know thyself without the other")

  • Spheres as inside/outside/boundary ("no boundary between a human and nature because we're a shared air")

  • Life having many forms (polyforms)

  • Polycentric structure ("everyone can be a center of the Universe")

  • Triangle as a balanced relationship (example of tiny spheres as a cube and as a tetra)..

We plan to continue exploring and go further: take general principles of synergetics and imagine practical examples of how would our world look like if tetrahedron is the basic structure vs cube (how would a city look like? a community? and so on)


我昨天问曼苏尔“我们的项目如何分形?”他的回答是,它是针对特定项目的。但是一个普遍的想法是:“元素可以同步在一起以创建一个整体,而不是其各个部分”。

I asked Mansoor yesterday "how our projects can be fractal?" His answer was that it's project-specific. But a general idea is: "Elements can sync together to create a whole greater than its parts".


//“爱因斯坦(Albert Einstein)拒绝相信掷骰子神。他写给马克斯·伯恩(Max Born)的一封信中说:“您相信一个上帝,我会在完整的法律和秩序中扮演骰子。”因此,他显然感到偶然性和确定性法律不相容。他喜欢确定性定律。现在,Mandelbrot的场景,混乱和相关的事情对我们所做的就是表明您可以同时拥有这两者。重要的不是上帝是否玩骰子。上帝就是这样玩骰子的。” -伊恩·斯图尔特教授(46:00)//

-对随机性和顺序感到好奇。我们可以从“分形”中学到什么,以在我们的人类生活和社会中拥有更多的流动性?

// “Albert Einstein refused to believe in a dice-playing deity. He wrote a letter to Max Born in which he said, ‘You believe in a God who plays dice and I in complete law and order.’ So, he obviously felt that chance and deterministic laws were not compatible. He preferred the deterministic laws. Now, what the Mandelbrot set and chaos and related things have done for us is to show that you can have both at the same time. It is not whether God plays dice that matters. It is how God plays dice.” — Prof. Ian Stewart (46:00) //

  • Curious about randomness and order. What can we learn from Fractals to have more fluidity in our human lives and as society?

在与任何一个朋友交谈之前(上面的评论),我看完电影后就在博客上写了一篇反思

现在,我意识到可以用多种方式来解释任何主题:在我个人对朋友的思考和反馈中,我有很多不同的观点。这使我认为个人和集体思考都很重要。

Before I talked to any of my friends (comments above), I wrote a reflection on my blog straight after watching a movie.

Now I realise that any topic can be interpreted in many ways: I have quite different points on my individual reflection and feedback from my friends. That makes me think that thinking individually and collectively are both important.
