A dynamic system with magnetic interaction between its parts visualizes the increasing difficulty of prediction the farther into the future we attempt to look.

  • arg... yeah, there is no music reference at the end of the video. It's a song by 'The Notwist' ...

  • This has nothing to do with Ed Lorenz's paper. I think there are better ways of visualizing sensitive dependence.

  • people who are intelligent and/or curious are pre-determined to click my youtube name next to this comment to see independent cartoons influenced by the subject of "determinism" and "causality" as well as "endless sarcasm" and will then leave comments about how "uninspired" they are.

  • hast ja einen youtube channel! :o)

    gar nicht gewusst ... wie geht's so in hongkong?

  • huh?

  • Very interesting! I think it blends art and mathematics/physics very well. I love these sort of installations. East to appreciate through this work that small changes in initial conditions lead to massive changes in results, and that as I get it, is a big part of chaos theory.

  • Chaotic systems are deterministic. What makes a system chaotic, in other words difficult to predict far into the future, is it's sensitivity to the starting values. What that means is that if you rotated that one element even slightly different the last movements of the resulting chain reaction will be remarkably different.

  • There was a system, of magnetic elements, that if you move one element starts a movement of others in chain way. That they called flow. But this wave/flow is deterministic? Could you, or a bighead scientist say what element will move for what side if you move one element for side 180 degrees?

    If this is possible, and i think not, so is a caotic system.

    But the title is "deterministic nonperiodic", and i think this means that exists a formula or equation that rules this waves...

  • What exactly is being dimenstrated here?

  • lovely! PS. Where is the soundtrack from?
