Published: While art and science are often separated in academia, there is a lot to be learnt by considering them together. The field combines biology and psychology to understand the roots of how people think and behave. Are there ‘rules’ for conveying emotion through art?

From miniscule sub-atomic particles to gargantuan black holes, the world of science deals with a dramatic range of sizes. Research computing is a sub-discipline of computer science. Funder : Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC). Biology with Professor Michelle Peckham and Dr Alistair Curd.

This is the first of a series of pieces I’m planning in connection with the upcoming 20th anniversary of the publication of A New Kind of Science. “There’s a Whole New Field to Build…” For me the story began nearly 50 years ago —with what I saw as a great and fundamental mystery of science. Mathematical physics.

Building on an earlier interest in space and spacecraft , I’d gotten very interested in physics, and was trying to read everything I could about it. There were several shelves of physics books at the local bookstore. The other books I’d read had all basically said “physics works like this”. The lambda hyperon.

It’s yet another surprising construct that’s arisen from our Physics Project. And it’s one that I think has extremely deep implications—both in science and beyond. In the language of our Physics Project, it’s the ultimate limit of all rulial multiway systems. In many ways, the ruliad is a strange and profoundly abstract thing.

So now it’s natural to wonder: How far will this go? My goal here is to explore some of the science, technology—and philosophy—of what we can expect from AIs. And in the phenomenon of computational irreducibility science is in effect “deriving its own limitedness”. What will AIs be able to do? And how will we humans fit in?

But by the end of the 1800s, with the existence of molecules increasingly firmly established, the Second Law began to often be treated as an almost-mathematically-proven necessary law of physics. But by the mid-1600s the idea was emerging that there could be more explicit and mechanical explanations for phenomena in the natural world.

And for example the concept of “temperature” is there because exponential distributions familiar from statistical physics happen to be being used, but there’s no “physical” connection—at least so far as we know.) In this particular case, we can use known laws of physics to work it out.

Meet David I majored in anthropology and biology at university. I took courses with a biological anthropologist who inspired me to study how humans use biology and culture to adapt (or not) to stressful environments such as food scarcity, extreme temperatures, and common diseases.
