In this lesson we tell the story of how Stephen Wolfram made the discovery that simple programs can create complex behavior.

In this lesson we discuss how Stephen Wolfram first applied his idea that simple programs can create complex behavior to the field of theoretical biology.

In this lesson we look at Stephen Wolfram’s new model for biological evolution based on cellular automata.

Using his new model for adaptive systems, Stephen Wolfram has recently done some fascinating work in fields outside of biology. In this lesson, we discuss that new work.
