Joe Norman has a great example of emergence and [[reductionism|irreducibility]] at [https://open.spotify.com/episode/4iX7DPthz47YdkPB7MWHJG? Risky Conversations]: If you try to break a [[Möbius loop]] into smaller parts, you lose its one-sidedness. Each of its segments has ''two'' sides. You can join any of its segments together, and they still have two sides. It is only when you twist the emerging structure and join it back on itself that the second side vanishes. | Joe Norman has a great example of emergence and [[reductionism|irreducibility]] at [https://open.spotify.com/episode/4iX7DPthz47YdkPB7MWHJG?
