Theres an old show from the seventies (Get Smart) which
stars "maxwell smart" and agent 99 ....
two members of the "good" agency "CONTROL"
who do battle with the "bad" agency "CHAOS"
As much as this in a way was a humorous poke
at the then happening "cold war" I suppose it
has implications to the world that has emerged
of today where we try to make sense and "control"
and ever increasing complexity of life "chaos".
I suppose the difference may be that this "control"
is us vs the "chaos" that is inherantly perhaps the
natural or perhaps one of the natural states of the universe.
Now I suppose it may help to see that some where along
the way I attempted to understand this conundrum and
made distincitons between chaos, complexity, and simplicity
where if you remember I defined chaos as unorderly "motion"
complexity as "orderly motion" and simplicity as "stationary".
Now I think this still applies although it seems the degree
of orderly motion or complexity is a bit of a curve to see
or appreciate at times and we see it as chaos.
I think this inability to see the orderly motion in the complexity is a result perhaps of our not having evolved sufficiently or not having the tools or technology or something.
Okay my point? Yes it may look like total chaos this complexity we see but I sense there is an inherent "order"
therein though obscurded by our unevolved limitations.
