DESCRIPTION:"We introduce a simple idea enabling the quantification of org
 anization in non-equilibrium and equilibrium systems\, even when the form 
 of order is unknown. The length of a losslessly compressed data file is a 
 direct measure of its information content. Just compare the size of a pict
 ure file before and after you push the “compress” key on your cell pho
 ne or computer. We use lossless data compression to study several equilibr
 ium and out-of-equilibrium systems\, artificial colloidal swimmers\, bacte
 ria\, and other active particles\, to explore ordering\, dynamical phase t
 ransitions\, and critical behavior."
