The Internet Scout listserv passes along the item below. I note, however,
that when one gets to the site, there is no category for Complexity. Should
there be? What examples would it have?
Physics Flash Animations [Macromedia Flash Player]
http://www.upscale.utoronto.ca/GeneralInterest/Harrison/Flash/"How does one exactly illustrate the principle of chaos? Well, fortunately
for budding physicists and other interested parties, a very nice animation
demonstrating chaos (and other such processes and phenomena) are made
available at this website. Created by David M. Harrison of the Department of
Physics at the University of Toronto, the site contains Flash animations
that illustrate principles in such categories as optics, sound waves,
vectors, and relativity. Visitors are welcome to click on each category, or
to scroll down to the specific processes such as the Lorenz Attractor or
such principles from classical mechanics as displacement and distance. It is
worth noting that the animations are also available in Catalan and Spanish."
