AND NOTHING ABOUT MUCH ADO
THE year ends today. Whew. And good riddance. I don’t think I could stand much more dis-information and dis-integration.
Today’s topic then is rightfully about “chaos.” Chaos has to it’s name, a whole scientific theory: Chaos Theory, “an interdisciplinary theory stating that, within the apparent randomness of chaotic complex systems, there are underlying patterns, interconnectedness, constant feedback loops, repetition, self-similarity, fractals, and self-organization.” To that, given the events of 2020, I would add the seeming befitting categorical distinction of “organized crime” (which presumes there exists dis-informed, dis-integrated, dis-organized crime on off-years, which I suspect might actually be true, at the least, fake true). The Encyclopedia Brittanica would take it a bit further, defining “chaosology” as “the study of apparently random or unpredictable behaviour in systems governed by deterministic laws. A more accurate term, deterministic chaos, suggests a paradox because it connects two notions that are familiar and commonly regarded as incompatible.”
Deterministic chaos? Is that what we experienced throughout 2020 and the preceding three years in USA? More like “determined” chaos, I think. Hey, I read THE ART OF THE DEAL way back when the idea of a Chaos President was truly indeterminate and, well, yes, absurdly chaotic. But back in 2016, I must admit, it didn’t seem so. At least, at first. So, what to call chaos that’s fake news rolled up into a theory of business where everybody participating “gets the business?” I’m thinking, “deserved chaos,” and I think that idea fully merits its own unique chaos theory.
I would like to say that THE EDGE OF MADNESS (Aignos 2020) by Raymond Gaynor is a good example of a plausible future study that touches directly on the illusory idea that out of chaos will come something good and stable, but, well, that would be more fake news. THE EDGE OF MADNESS is a plausible future study on what could and likely would result from a period of destructive national political chaos like that described in its naughty, irreverent, LGBTQ bromance prequel, TOTAL MELTDOWN (Borgo/Wildside 2009) by Raymond Gaynor and William Maltese. What actually comes of chaos is…well…more chaos. Making today’s post truly nothing about much ado.
