I was concerned about this quote when I first used the term "unpatterned awareness" for DQ. I think Bruce may be correct in thinking of chaos as the opposite of Quality, but wrong in granting any reality to chaos. It's hard to imagine the opposite of Quality, but I think it makes sense to think of chaos as the absence of the experience of value (static patterns as well as DQ), but that would be the absence of experience all together--the absence of reality if reality is Quality. So chaos is nothing to worry about incorporating into an MOQ explanation other than to say that there is no such thing as complete chaos.
