"take a step toward your soul, you will at first miss the meaning.
You will believe that you have sunk into meaninglessness, into eternal disorder.
You will be right! Nothing will deliver you from disorder and meaninglessness, since this is the other half of the world.
Your God is a child, so long as you are not childlike. Is the child order, meaning? Or disorder, caprice?"
Jung, The Red Book.

"Disorder and meaninglessness are the mother of order and meaning. Order and meaning are things that have become and are no longer becoming.
You open the gates of the soul to let the dark flood of chaos flow into your order and meaning.
If you marry the ordered to the chaos you produce the divine child, the supreme meaning beyond meaning and meaninglessness."
good thinking there. the Japanese have used slime mold to plan transit i read somewhere.
it's pretty clever.
@holon42 some architects do not plan sidewalks in advance for new construction. Rather they wait for people to find natural structure in the chaos and plan walkways accordingly.
