Welcome to emergentuniverse.org, the future home of ICAM's online museum of emergent phenomena.  Not only will you find emergence explained in plain English, you’ll also find a myriad of activities to explore ­ from manga comics and dance videos to molecular mutations and an expedition into the brain. You’ll learn what fireflies did for the internet, how neurons are like ants, why mayonnaise is a model for new materials, and what spider silk has in common with mad cow disease. You’ll even see how approaching the world from an emergent perspective can help us solve some of our most challenging problems, from global warming and global hunger to the threat of biological terrorism.
