Science 3: The Work Program of Complexity

Transparencies and copies of handouts to accompany “Complexity Lecture No. 10.” Dr. John N. Warfield discusses his work on complexity. Part of a series of 12 lectures on complexity given at the Johnson Center, George Mason University. The third of three lectures on the topic of Science. A video of this lecture is available.

 

These are transparencies used in Lecture 10, and also printouts prepared as handouts for the audience. Copies of these papers went into a tape-bound report titled “George Mason University Johnson Center Lecture Series on Complexity, Lecture Group 3.” The report is in Box 36, Folder 11 of GMU's Warfield Collection C0016 at Fenwick Library. Lecture 10 was videotaped by GMU student video center, and the single tape cassette is in Box 67 of the Warfield Collection. Also there is a movie (mpeg) file on Warfield home computers somewhere. In filename: johnsonctr98lecture10complec10.mpg

Available for viewing now only in the Lecture Group 3 report, (above), but eventually we can provide separate downloads of each of the items.  Right now, under old filenames and buried in huge folders, these filenames are on John Warfield's old computer disks.  Here is the complete list of the Lecture 10 Handout items, not as  they would appear in the Lecture 3 report, but with John's old filenames on his old computer hard drive:
