Complexity vs stability, an ecosystem perspective
Natural ecosystems regularly have to endure disruptive external forces. However, when given time to recover, the ecosystems often find a new stable equilibrium. The network of interactions within an ecosystem is constructed in such a way that it facilitates stability against external influences, unlike random networks. This article will provide an extensive review of the academic ecology research to gain insight in why ecosystem networks are so stable while random networks are not. In additio...

Network biomimicry and DAOs
Nature has been a big source of inspiration throughout the history of humanity. A lot of the technology that we encounter on a daily basis today is created by replicating what we observe in nature. Velcro, antibiotics or computer vision are some examples. Nature has developed the template for these technologies over a selection process encompassing billions of years. Copying nature’s design instead of reinventing the wheel has helped us find solutions for many challenges we were once facing. ...
