Abstract

This article debates some of the main categories of Complexity and Self-organization Theories analyzing them from the point of view of contemporary Aesthetics and Art Theory. Thus we shall discuss specifically three of the these categories, namely the autocatalytical processes of diffusion and reaction, the distinction between homeosthasis and homeorhesis and finally the dynamics of repulsion, atraction and repulsion in ferrofluid systems.
