Complexity Symposium
Art, Complexity and Technology:
Their Interaction in Emergence
Villa Gualino,
Torino, Italy, May 5-6, 2005

Please also see www.isi.it and
http://www.complexityscience.org

The Symposium has brought together scientists, artists, complexity scholars and those working with complexity and technology to explore the interaction and co-evolution of ideas and experiences in the three domains; a different use of technology should emerge through the language of representation and of the medium in representation.
