chaos as being data absent corelation, and some coherent corelation being the difference between data and information.

Right, like that. But then, what is meant by data, correlation, coherent, information, chaos aside from this definition. And then, what do they do, what do they create? More data or something entirely different and unexpected based on what is known about data?

Abstract concepts, as with all tools, create nothing. The question is what do we created with them. IMHO.
