  • Order From Chaos
    Oct 24 2024

    Today we examine chaos through the lens of information theory and system dynamics, exploring how representational limits - from floating-point precision to quantum scales - create what we perceive as disorder. Through examples from atmospheric physics, crystallography, and history, we'll reveal how interactions between systems of different precision drive both evolution and innovation. Join us as Lorenz's butterfly effect and Locard's Exchange Principle transform our understanding of chaos, recasting it not as the enemy of order, but as its subtle architect.
