Inventing Abstraction: Visualizing the Social Network Behind Artistic Innovation

Follow @pjlamberson

This is a blog about social interactions. When people interact and influence one another's choices, the resulting macro level dynamics can be complex, astounding, horrific, and/or beautiful. In my research, I use modeling to try and understand how social interactions give rise to this astounding diversity of phenomena. The blog is a place for me to make more casual observations about social dynamics in the news, in my research, in other people's research, and in everyday life.
