This is a ~54 minute talk given at a workshop on complexity. Many of the examples are the same ones I often talk about but this talk is focused on explaining how biology deals with complexity, and ways to think about complex patterns of form and behavior beyond the conventional approach of emergence.
Michael Levin discusses the underlying patterns of biological form and behavior, exploring concepts that extend beyond traditional emergence in developmental biology.
