Hi Case, (And Mark Maxwell)
I too believe formal Chaos (as opposed to Good Ol Fashioned Chaos) and
Complexity have something to say about reality, and as such fit with
"Quality".
(I'm fascinated by Mandelbrot and other chaotic generators &
attractors and have several applets on my own desktop to play with -
the fascination only ever ends with the limits on graphic processing
resolution on the domestic PC.)
Mark Maxwell should recognise your three conditions
1 is Static order
2 is GOF Chaos - the disorder of infinite entropy
3 is the coherent sweet spot where DQ exists.
Slartibartfastian - I like it.
