NY Hall of Science: The Nature of Networks
Sunday, June 1st, 2008
My favorite, and the most thought-provoking, of the exhibits at NYHS. These quotes seen around The Nature of Networks exhibit say it all:
“Nature uses only the longest threads to weave her patterns, so each small piece of her fabric reveals the organization of the entire tapestry.”
- Richard Feynman
Internet Arm Wrestling
“We cannot live for ourselves alone. Our lives are connected by a thousand invisible threads, and along these sympathetic fibers, our actions run as causes and return to us as results.”
- Herman Melville
“Call it a clan, call it a network, call it a tribe, call it a family. Whatever you call it, whoever you are, you need one.”
- Jane Howard
