“Entropy – Islands in chaos” a concept introduced by Norbert Wiener. It describes the idea that there can be areas or “islands” of order or structure within an otherwise chaotic system. It illustrates that regions of organization and structure can exist within. These “islands” can be created and maintained through processes of self-organization, information, or communication.
The concept is not transferable 1:1 to Tokyo, but there are parallels.
