"Chaos theory has a bad name, conjuring up images of unpredictable weather, economic crashes and science gone wrong. But there is a fascinating and hidden side to Chaos, one that scientists are only now beginning to understand. It turns out that chaos theory answers a question that mankind has asked for millennia - how did we get here? In this documentary, Professor Jim Al-Khalili sets out to uncover one of the great mysteries of science - how does a universe that starts off as dust end up with intelligent life? How does order emerge from disorder? It's a mindbending, counterintuitive and for many people a deeply troubling idea. But Professor Al-Khalili reveals the science behind much of beauty and structure in the natural world and discovers that far from it being magic or an act of God, it is in fact an intrinsic part of the laws of physics. Amazingly, it turns out that the mathematics of chaos can explain how and why the universe creates exquisite order and pattern. The natural world is full of awe-inspiring examples of the way nature transforms simplicity into complexity. From trees to clouds to humans - after watching this film you'll never be able to look at the world in the same way again."

mental_floss Blog » We See With the Eyes, But We See With the Brain as Well…
“We see with the eyes, but we see with the brain as well, and seeing with the brain is often called ‘imagination,’ and we are familiar with the landscapes of our own imagination, our ‘inscapes,’ we’ve lived with them all our lives. But there are also hallucinations as well, and hallucinations are completely different…they seem to come from the outside, and to mimic perception.” With those words, world-famous neurologist Oliver Sacks begins a fascinating twenty-minute talk on hallucination, which you can watch in its entirety below. Sacks is well-known for his work in neurology, and you’ve probably seen the movie Awakenings (starring Robin WIlliams as a character based on Sacks) — that film was based on the true story of how Sacks discovered how to revive catatonic patients with a new drug called L-Dopa. Anyway, back to today’s Sacks talk.Discussed: visual hallucinations among the visually impaired, hallucinations as “a rather boring movie,” Charles Bonnett syndrome, handsome young men

Magic and the Brain: Teller Reveals the Neuroscience of Illusion
Now that on-the-job experimentation has taken an academic turn. A couple of years ago, Teller joined a coterie of illusionists and tricksters recruited by Stephen Macknik and Susana Martinez-Conde, researchers at the Barrow Neurological Institute in Phoenix, Arizona, to look at the neuroscience of magic. Last summer, that work culminated in an article for the journal Nature Reviews Neuroscience called "Attention and Awareness in Stage Magic." Teller was one of the coauthors, and its publication was a signal event in a field some researchers are calling magicology, the mining of stage illusions for insights into brain function.

tweenbots | kacie kinzer
In New York, we are very occupied with getting from one place to another. I wondered: could a human-like object traverse sidewalks and streets along with us, and in so doing, create a narrative about our relationship to space and our willingness to interact with what we find in it? More importantly, how could our actions be seen within a larger context of human connection that emerges from the complexity of the city itself? To answer these questions, I built robots.
