Interesting Steve, I too (really) think of it in terms of waves ... emergent patterns upon patterns, upon patterns, but that's more than just an analogy ... I think the analogy here was simply one of topological representation. Just hard to draw the patterns upon patterns view, without actually drawing an awful lot of patterns.
(It's turtles all the way down of course, so even the inorganic patterns are more waves in a sea of ... potential ... called DQ, or the aesthetic continuum maybe.)
