African fractals, in buildings and braids

African fractals, in buildings and braids

LINK: http://www.ted.com/index.php/talks/ron_eglash_on_african_fractals.html


This is a cool little video that discusses the fractal nature of life, and specifically in relation to human culture and architecture.

The speaker does a pretty good job of keeping you interested, and it at least provides a comprehensive introduction to applying fractal concepts to real-world examples.

It is interesting to learn that, although it may escape our awareness or understanding much of the time, our species is behaving quite similarly in comparison to the rest of the world, organic or otherwise.

The Flying Spaghetti Monster designed all life using the same basic blueprint.  :pirate:

(It is neat how the same patterns can be found in all forms of life on Earth from lowly microbes to complex animals.)
