When we talk about chaos, we often mention computers, wars, or art. We see a lot of chaos in our lives happening but we never notice it. Chaos usually should be random, unexpected, and sometimes even destructive. Some of the art seen in the video show complete chaos and random movements that would lead the public to say: “I can do that”. They theoretically can recreate this simple random piece, but in reality, chaos cannot be re-experienced or regenerated. No matter the tries we won’t get the same art piece; there will be always details that only chaos created.
What we forget when talking about chaos and randomness is that they both are actually not random. Chaos and randomness are both very structured and calculated. For example, when playing the game Minecraft, the game creates a “random” map for each player, while still looking as if everything is connected and makes sense. And it is actually both, it’s pure randomness that was structured in a way to be random using particular math equations to randomize everything in an interconnected way. And we saw that also in some of the artwork generated that looked like pure random shapes, but it was just a class of lines that moved in a specific way away from each other, using math, that after a certain time, they generated that “random” pattern. Chaos was never random, and random was never random, but we always have control over how much chaos we want, in what direction, and how much.
