Information Theory, (all the rage in scientific circles in the 70's,) showed that information can not result from randomness. Chaos theory, (all the rage of the 80's and early 90's,) showed that true randomness does not exist.

Both of the above are false. Information theory shows that randomness generats the maximum amount of information. Chaos theory shows that deterministic systems are not necessarily predictable.

Information theory shows that randomness generats the maximum amount of information.

Simply put, the creation/transfer of information requires not only a sender/creator, in your case randomness. But also a reciever/translator/user that understands the language/code. Otherwise there is no useful anything.

And yes, that is what chaos theory started out as.
