Simple Complex System
Just as a human community is a group of individuals, each individual is made up of cells, cells of proteins, proteins of DNA… even atoms consist of smaller units. It seems that everything, animate and inanimate, can be broken down into its constituent parts. If we assume that this material world is nothing but a huge number of fundamental parts and their combinations, what rules their composition? Or is there a rule? Yuanhan Shen explores the patterns of replicating and twisting, and how the mere application of these two behaviours can develop a fundamental element into larger, variable, complex systems. He believes it can lead to the advanced study of transdisciplinary subjects along with morphogenesis, materials, architecture, sociology and data engineering.
