Introduction to Complexity: What are Complex Systems?

[@Andrew.baltazar]

Thank for you this. Getting multiple snapshots of a complex object is how we start to understand it. So thanks for posting all these different definitions. The very structure of the video applies it's understanding of complexity for effective pedagogy.

This is amazing. We should have versions of this video for all other abstract concepts (combining many different views in one place).

Beautifully answered from different perspectives. Thank you.

Should do these videos - of where they have to explain complexity to a 5 year old, then an elementary of high school student, a college student, a pdh student, then a professor

THIS IS GREAT. Is a new way to look at things. I think that this is very important for those that are interested by the "Seventh sense" the term cretaed by Jushua Cooper Ramo

Thanks for the upload.

I was hoping to meet Douglas Hofstadter as well... ah well...it was interesting anyways. Thanks Dr. Mitchell

a spontaneous or self-organized network of a diversity of interactive parts qualifying as a system as it can be recognized to "function in a cohesive manner under certain parameteric envirionmental conditions towards a particular synergistic outcome/output" which is not considered possible within the rules or expectations within the hierarchical scale of material organization from which those parts are considered to exist within.... due to feedback and feedforward loops of influence within the network where modular interactions are non-linear in nature.

Most of the answers could very well be taken as a general definition of "System". The most interesting question is when is a 'System' considered as a 'Complex' system as opposed to a 'Simple' one. is it non linearity? is it no central control component? is it diversity ?......

I think there is not a line , you can think like a gradient, where some systems are more complex than others

This is vague concept
