Video - Bradbury and Chaos Theory


The Butterfly Effect


A Sound Of Thunder is a 2005 film adaptation of Ray Bradbury's novel, published in 1952.

Bradbury chose a butterfly to symbolize the chaotic effect originating from a small change in the initial conditions, multiplied over time.

What does that remind you of? Of course, of the Butterfly Effect and Chaos Theory. However Edward Lorenz formulated the theory a few years later Bradbury's novel, in the early 1960s.

A coincidence? Can we say that the idea originated from science fiction writer Ray Bradbury?
