Arbitrage Equilibrium, Invariance, and the Emergence of Spontaneous Order in the Dynamics of Bird-like Agents [PDF]
The physics of active biological matter, such as bacterial colonies and bird flocks, exhibiting interesting self-organizing dynamical behavior has gained considerable importance in recent years.

Terrence Deacon’s (2012) notion developed in his book Incomplete Nature (IN) that living organisms are teleodynamic systems that are self-maintaining, self-correcting and self-reproducing is extended to human social systems.

Thermodynamics vs teleodynamics: A cosmological divide?
We show that black holes and the evolving universe belong to fundamentally different thermodynamic regimes: while stationary black holes obey ordinary Bekenstein-Hawking thermodynamics, cosmology follows memory-bearing teleodynamics, which is also ...

From Anthropocene to Noosphere: The Great Acceleration
Abstract The complex set of human‐driven global, social, technological, and environmental changes intensifying dramatically since 1950 has been identified as the “Great Acceleration.” This period of time represents a radical shift in our collective relationship to each other as well as to the Earth system as a whole.

Complexity and Dynamical Depth
We argue that a critical difference distinguishing machines from organisms and computers from brains is not complexity in a structural sense, but a difference in dynamical organization that is not well accounted for by current complexity measures.
