THE human consciousness is linked to the chaotic nature of the universe, according to an astonishing new theory. Our brains are programmed to make the most of chaos, just like the universe is, according to a team of scientists. Despite the subject being debated for centuries, experts are still unclear what exactly consciousness is and why we are aware of our surroundings. However, an international team of experts believe that they may have cracked it – and it could be linked to entropy. In physics, the second law of thermodynamics dictates that entropy – the degree of chaos – is ever increasing in the universe as time progresses. For example, at the very beginning of the universe, before the Big Bang, everything was in order. However, following the Big Bang, the particles became chaotic as everything began to disperse, and the entropy is still increasing to this day. A team of scientists have now applied the theory of entropy to the human consciousness, and they believe that our brain
