Even beyond Physics: Introducing Multicomputation as a Fourth General Paradigm for Theoretical Science

Stephen Wolfram

In physics, those “topological phenomena” presumably correspond to things like elementary particles , with all their various elaborate symmetries. Ultimately one wants to see how the structure and behavior of the system can be broken down into elementary “tokens” and “events”. Chemistry / Molecular Biology.

Delve Talks: Winnie Karanja, Maydm

Maydm

And so, after I returned back to Madison, I was in a conversation with a former elementary school principal at Fulton Elementary. I struggled in chemistry and I got very little support and so that meant that I couldn’t go on and take physics. And after my graduate degree, I again moved back to Madison.

Remembering the Improbable Life of Ed Fredkin (1934–2023) and His World of Ideas and Stories

Stephen Wolfram

It didn’t help that his knowledge of physics was at best spotty (and, for example, I don’t think he ever really learned calculus). In 2015 Ed told me a nice story about his time at Caltech: In 1952–53, I was a student in Linus Pauling’s class where he lectured Freshman Chemistry at Caltech.
