Fractals are self-similar patterns that repeat infinitely, where very simple rules naturally generate complex structures found throughout nature, such as the branching of lungs, river systems, and broccoli, challenging our intuitive belief that complexity must arise from complicated origins.

The Secret Formula That Designs Everything in NatureAdded:
Imagine looking inside your lungs and seeing a giant tree. Millions of tiny branches ending in air sacs. So many that their surface area equals a tennis court. Why this shape? It's called a fractal, a pattern that repeats itself over and over creating complexity from simple rule.
When we look at complexities in nature, we tend to ask where did they come from?
There is something in our heads that says complexity does not arise out of simplicity. [music] It must arise from something complicated. Conserve complexity. But what the mathematics in this whole area is telling us is that very [music] simple rules naturally give rise to very complex objects. And so if you look at the object, it looks complex [music] and you think about the rule that generates it, it's simple. So the same thing is both complex and simple from two different points of view. And that means we have to rethink completely the relation between simplicity and complexity. Watch the full video in my YouTube channel. Hit the link below.
