At maximum range the footprint approaches a linear release of submunitions over 1200m.

Governments role will be different in countries like China, where officials will guide a shift from dependence on external sources of growth to more balanced demand. As this requires some fundamental domestic re alignments, the rebalancing will be both gradual and non linear at times.

I have linear algebra, science, physics, even nowadays, chemistry and biology, as you've seen.

So now I want to go onto talking about the linear to closed loop idea.

You look at art. Look at the ballerina, how linear she is in her performance.

So it transformed a linear process into a closed loop model, and it created more value in the process.

Well, I came up with this kind of linear expression thing with these cams and feedback. And that worked pretty well.

And you can also tell, because of the sharp edges and the way things fit together, there are some non linear processes.

Everybody who's spoken at TED has told us implicitly, or sometimes explicitly, a different story that life is not linear it's organic.

It says that, if it were linear, the steepest slope, then doubling the size you would require double the amount of energy.

We need stories that replace that linear narrative of endless growth with circular narratives that remind us that what goes around comes around.
