The Point attractor is the simplest way to bring order out of chaos. Its home is the first dimension of the line, a collection of an infinite number of points (looks like a radial mindmap); http://spanky.triumf.ca/www/fractal-info/classic-attr.htm "The four attractors act on all levels of reality to form Cosmos out of Chaos. They make up a newly discovered Wisdom Law fundamental to making sense of what is happening in the real world. The world is not really totally ordered as previously believed. It is fundamentally disordered, chaotic, but it contains forces or attractors of cosmos that create patterns of order over time." Links http://www.geocities.com/capecanaveral/lab/1837/index_a.html
