George Rochberg writes, “The physical concept of entropy, which plays a large part in the world of probability depicted by twenty-century physics, is the measure of the tendency of nature toward disorder, non-differentiation, and a final state of static equilibrium.” Aesthetics of Survival by Rochberg p6
Playing with a straight blade ambidextrously affords a player the opportunity to align themselves with deeper aspects of nature where more success in the game can be found based on unpredictability and effortlessness.
Norbert Weiner wrote, “as entropy increases, the universe, and all closed systems in the universe, tend naturally to deteriorate and lose their distinctiveness, to move from the least to the most probable state, from the state of organization and differentiation in which distinctions and forms exist, to a state of chaos and sameness.” The Human Uses of Human Beings by Weiner p12
Playing with an indistinct straight blade allows a player to camouflage their intentions and actions more skillfully bringing a deeper level of deception to bear in their favor in the game.
