Implosion , Explosion, and the Great Binary part. 1

Time to start breaking down/building up some basic concepts.  Implosion is Radial->Axial motion, while explosion describes Radial->Axial flow.  During implosion, matter undergoes densation and cooling, while explosion is expansive and heat-inducing.  Thus temperature gradients are associated with a shifting polarity--expanding and heating/contracting and cooling.  For now, the goal is to line up qualities co-occurring horizontally (stacked together) in time as different aspects of relative concepts, or analyzing the shifting polarity of yin/yang.  Heating and cooling are likewise associated with entropy and ectropy.  Entropy is part of the study of Thermodynamics, and we’ve all probably heard it associated with heat loss or decay.   But chances are ectropy may not have beeped on your lexical radar.  You could say that our culture has taken more stock of one side of the Great Binary than the other.  For example, the difference in length and detail of the Wikipedia entries of the two relatives amounts to 10 or more pages for “entropy” and small slice of a page for “ectropy.”  Spellcheck also reflects this imbalance as it doesn’t recognize “ectropy” in its native dictionary.  That the universe right now is continually expanding may only be part of the reason for this.  Historically, equations for power and energy flow and conversion were developed as part of the need for accounting for and improving upon energy systems.  As energy is used to perform useful work, it is progressively degraded into less useful forms while heat loss/friction co-occurs.  All systems, at some point, necessarily decay and disintegrate into disorder.  However, since nature is an open system, more ordered/higher quality forms of energy often flow upstream against the flow of chaos and disintegration, allowing moments in and through time for order to arise and comingle with chaos.  Now, as science shifts away from main emphasis on mechanical/ explosive systems and technology, the energetics of self-organizing systems and biological systems is progressively coming to light.  See:  Into the Cool, The Rainbow and the Worm, and Water, Energy, and Life: Fresh Views from the Water's Edge.
