bifurcations

These interacting complex structures exhibit thermodynamic and evolutionary features thought to be peculiar only to living matter such as bifurcations that serve as ` memory marks ', self-duplication, metabolic rates in a thermodynamically open system, and non-Hamiltonian dynamics.

In the review that follows, I will try to indicate this complexity as it is expressed in the three books under consideration, which are neither translations of existing works nor entirely new ones but rather syntheses and extensions, or rather 'bifurcations' of some of the key insights Bifo has developed into contemporary culture, media and politics, especially over the last decade or so, in works such as

Gems like this: "The concept of homeostasis doesn't easily describe the potential existence of sudden, catastrophic change or any other 'bifurcations' in which the system has two possible paths it can take, depending on the critical threshold values of the parameters."

These shifts, called "bifurcations," appear to happen in abrupt series, which is counter-intuitive to the idea that the planet cools or warms gradually.
