Below are links to some of the people and groups doing
particularly imaginative things in the field of simplexity theory.
- The Santa Fe Institute: This is
the heart of the simplexity world.
Established in 1984 by Nobel prize
winner Murray Gell-Mann,
and complexity eventually land.
The Perimeter Institute: Established in 1999 by
Mike Lazardius, developer of the BlackBerry, the
Ontario-based institute is like a more narrowly
focused Santa Fe Institute, concentrating primarily
on cosmology, particle physics, quantum gravity,
superstring theory, and related fields.
- The MIT Media Lab: If there’s hope for
a simple cell phone or camcorder that’s
media lab is not the only place studying how to make modern
electronics better, but it’s clearly the leader.
The Massey Ratings: For
simplexity in sports, Ken
Massey’s popular site is
the go-to spot. Want to see
how a terrible team will always beat a great team—at least within a
few degrees of separation? Here’s the place.
- The Carter Center: Jimmy Carter’s eponymous
foundation continues to do good works around the
world, exploiting the ability of simple fixes to correct
grave problems.
The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation:
The Gates have learned from Carter and
others and built what may be the most
powerful philanthropic organization in history.
- Sam Schwartz Engineering:
"Gridlock" Sam, as he’s better
known, is the man who coined the
most famous word in the field of
the physics of traffic and how to keep it flowing.
Also, Hyperion Books (publisher of Simplexity), and a complete
index to Jeffrey Kluger's work for Time magazine.
