"Embracing Chaos"

In a world as complex as ours, it becomes increasingly difficult to predict what will happen next. This uncertainty can be disconcerting to people who are raised to expect "order and good government".

In fact this "new world order" is closer in its behavior to natural systems (such as weather patterns or ecological interrelationships) than it is to grand architectures and orderly machinations we customarily associate with civilizations. A study of this kind of chaos reveals it to be the manifestation of a higher order.

Although culturally bogged down in linear thinking left over from the now outdated Newtonian "Enlightenment", science, the arts, even religion can provide us with the paradigms, and technologies to understand, and even benefit from this higher order.

We believe that to adhere to unchanging linear models is to have a fossilized mind. To avoid extinction we must be prepared to co-evolve with our technologies. This site is dedicated to that process. Your comments and observations are welcome on the blog. As a first principle we recognize that no paradigm can claim the ultimate ontology and so we will abide by physicist/philosopher David Bohm's principles of "scientific irony". By this we mean that there is no one truth and and we take everything with a grain of salt. Or to misquote RA Wilson via Xen Dada Axis: We are, in general, agnostic but as pertains to "God" we are decidedly atheist.

The Kaosphere

The axes of the KaoSphere can be said to symbolize the chaos found where the three spacial dimensions intersect with time. This space time continuum is a strange attractor maintained like a stable feedback loop between the extremes of dead matter and radiant energy.

It is a dynamical, nonlinear system out of which reality is made up from the emergent patterns. By it's nature, one's perspectives will determine what one can see.

Because of it's reiterative nature, the whole system can be seen reflected in any part, and so each part is similar yet different.

This site will reflect some of those perspectives.
