Particles in motion

Particles in motion is a very forceful metaphor for what happens near the thermodynamical limit. Where massive numbers of particles interact, brought into motion by some sort of energy. It is there emergence happens and complex structures organize.

Everywhere I look there is a lot of particles and they are all organized in some structure and the structure is always changing.

The challenge is to identify the particles at different levels. A particle can be an atom, a car, a human, a program and everything else. Every particle is a complex structure of other particles in motion. It is recursive and it goes on forever.
