Week Eight Assignment

1. Ordered Chaos - Does this sound familiar?

I'd say it does sound familiar. I think ordered chaos is pretty much how the world works. If it were pure chaos, nothing would exist. If it were pure order, the world would be cold and robotic and boring.

2. Fractal Patterns as patterns of complex systems

As one of my other classmates noted on their blog regarding this question, conscious thought breeds action. The idea that the bits and pieces of what we think (i.e. the beginning equations in a fractal pattern) become the action that we take (the eventual art that makes up a fractal). Though I feel that the math equations of my head the become the fractals of my actions are quite a bit smaller and less complex than the incredibly stunning fractals I've seen online.

3. Consciousness out of chaos?

Absolutely. As the first question about ordered chaos states, I think that consciousness is the result of ordered chaos.
