At TED2010, mathematics legend Benoit Mandelbrot develops a theme he first discussed at TED in 1984 — the extreme complexity of roughness, and the way that fractal math can find order within patterns that seem unknowably complicated.

Benoit Mandelbrot’s work has led the world to a deeper understanding of fractals, a broad and powerful tool in the study of roughness, both in nature and in humanity’s works.
