Ilya Prigogine explains how physics is much like music
From his own rather complex history Ilya Prigogine, the Russian born Belgian national residing in USA has developed a Nobel Prize winning theory of complex physics. He was one of the pioneers in disproving the deterministic newtonian world view. In this clip he explains how the physical world, much like music and arts, follow strict rules and at the same time display an astonishing degree of unpredictability and complexity way beyond that of deterministic linear systems.
Enjoy how he in an amazing Russian-Franco-German English with remarkable ease explains complexity theory so any high school student with an msn account gets the idea..
Because the world is like music.
