i claim that many patterns of nature are so irregular and fragmented, that, compared with euclid - a term used in this work to denote all of standard geometry - nature exhibits not simply a higher degree but an altogether different level of complexity ... the existence of these patterns challenges us to study these forms that euclid leaves aside as being "formless," to investigate the morphology of the "amorphous."
