According to the American researcher JC Sprott, as the dimension of a system increases, the likelihood that it is chaotic also increases. For high-dimensional systems, chaos is the norm rather than the exception.
We will investigate organising principles of chaotic circuits as isolated nodes and as part of larger systems. Workshop participants will build a simple circuit exhibiting non-autonomous (driven) chaos, and the circuits will be interconnected to produce a chaotic network. We will use both visual and audio displays to represent the information within an elaboration of open hardware.
