Simplicity and Complexity [copy link]
release time:2014-06-24
Simplicity and complexity are two words with strong contrast
that have interrelated connotations. To make things complex, one needs to have
countless experiences; yet to make things simple, one needs to lift up from
quantitative change to qualitative change. Buddhist has the saying about living
the life and larger than life. Yet how can one be larger than life without
first living the life? Therefore we need to have complexity first before reaching
simplicity. In Kongfu, there is the saying about lifting heavy stuff as if it
were light. Yet how can the lifting appear to be simple if one does not have
the enormous strength to hold heavy things? Therefore simplicity is the
distillation of complexity. It is hard for us to achieve complexity in designing,
but it is even harder to achieve immaculate simplicity. It is the process of
distillation and sublimation, and such process can be summed
up in four words: complexity in,simplicity out.
