		<description>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boids

An emergent phenomenon,  Collective behavior is more than the sum of its individual parts. Thanks for posting that.

See also &quot;gravitational resonances&quot;.  There&#039;s definitely some heavy shit going on here.  In fact, all around us.  Simple systems governed by simple rules sometimes exhibit highly patterned, complex, and unexpected behavior.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_resonance

Once we learned to start looking for these, they turned out to be everywhere in nature.  Its non-entropic behavior seemingly arising out of some sort of complexity dimension.  Highly complex structures seem to arise spontaneously out of highly restrictive and simple architectures, as if the universe had some sort of propensity to generate pattern and order that used entropy itself as a sort of fuel.

It almost as if space time, or the quantum foam itself, has no choice but to develop complex structures.  

Its as good a place to look for God as any.</description>
