Well, well, well, what do we have here.

Sent to you by Roger via Google Reader:
The Institute for Complex Adaptive Matter has released a new online museum, The Emergent Universe.
This is, I think a truly novel approach to communicating the central
ideas of the new field of emergent phenomena and complexity, combining
the underlying physical basis of a wide array of examples with art and
music. The site itself presents an animated, non-directed interface to
branching sets of topics and what I guess one would call exhibits
(since it’s a museum after all). A lot of these are quite fun, and
instructive. A visitor is left with the feeling that there is lots more
to explore. The interface itself, I have to say, is very cool and a
glimpse of what is to come on the internet. Today’s text- and
photo-heavy web pages are bound to give way to sleek sophisticated
designs like this one…
Have fun!
