Risk Roundup: Negentropy and PredictionUnderstanding Negentropy
Negentropy, a scientific measure of complexity and order, is all around us. It is understood to be the opposite of Entropy—which is a measure of chaos and disorder. While it is the opposite of Entropy, which is basically a measure of chaos and disorder, they are both related and seen in the entire human ecosystem. Therefore, understanding and evaluating Negentropy and applying it to our ability for predictions have become fundamental for our collective security.
So, as we evaluate the human systems in our domains and dimensions, from the financial systems to healthcare systems to the security systems, the question emerges as to how can we apply understanding of Negentropy to predict what is coming our way and fix what is not working.
Based on what we have understood from the second law of thermodynamics, the Universe’s Entropy is continuously increasing. So, what are the implications, and what does it mean for the future of humanity?
When we evaluate the current state, our assumptions, and our predictions, there is no doubt that we are gradually moving towards disorder, and if left unchecked, it will eventually lead to the collapse of our civilization.Â
Democratization of Destruction and Entropy
Every time we do constructive activities, we create Negentropy. When we create order around us, we create Negentropy. The reason is that things take on a more ordered state than they had previously. However, when we do a destructive activity, we create Entropy. The same goes for building systems that are likely to collapse. It perhaps creates the same amount of Entropy. As we see today in cyberspace, there is a democratization of destruction, and because of cyberspace, the destruction is headed towards all connected domains and dimensions.
It is also crucial to understand that when systems were created in the past and created again in the digital age, most are still closed systems pushing the Entropy ahead. Therefore, it is crucial to evaluate the need to build open systems that would grow Negentropy. The reason is, we need abilities to see as far as we can. We need to predict the future of our systems and humanity and the future of the entire cosmos. Â The challenge is that today with the tools we have, we cannot see much further. To protect our collective future, we need to be able to see much further. Because there is still so much, we need to know.
Future Of Humanity
Human civilization, its culture, and continuity is a sum total of billions of efforts. If we involve everyone across nations to come together to shape our culture and future, the future of humanity will be much stronger. Unfortunately, we are letting a small group of people decide what our culture should be. We depend on closed systems to shape our universe. So, looking at the current state of humanity, it is crucial to evaluate where our civilization is heading. The reason is that every action and inaction has implications beyond us; every system that is closed or open plays a role in creating disorder and order. So, the question is:
Now is a time to talk about Negentropy and Prediction!

About the Guest
Dan Winter, from Fractal University, graduated with honors from the University of Detroit. He pursued graduate studies in psychophysiology and the origin of languages. In addition to his academic background, he has worked as a Systems Analyst with IBM, an industrial metallurgist, and crystallographer. He has undertaken many diverse studies, from quantum physics to modeling at the MIT space lab to developing the early biofeedback prototype equipment as Dr. Albert Axe’s protégé. In addition, Dan has lectured on the evolution of consciousness, sacred geometry, and coherent emotion through the years at many national and international conferences. His work on gravitational energy, emotions, the evolution of consciousness, sacred geometry, and more has resulted in numerous publications and books.
