SUMMARY:Abendvortrag mit Sean Silver (NOMIS Fellow): Towards a History of C
 omplexity: Images and Model
DESCRIPTION:Stephen Hawking pronounced this the century of complexity.  Bu
 t thinking of things as the complex entanglements of simpler components ha
 s a long history\, even in the limited sense of its importance to the arts
  and sciences of Western Europe.  This talk recovers one aspect of that h
 istory\, beginning with arguably the very first image used to model a comp
 lex system as such.  From alchemical elements to quasi-crystals\, corpusc
 ular affections to ecological entanglements\, images have all along been c
 rucial to modelling complex systems.  This talk traces a few steps toward
 s a history of these techniques.
