Entropy’s Role in Signal Clarity and the Big Bass Splash September 18, 2025 – Posted in: Uncategorized
Entropy, originally a thermodynamic measure of disorder, has evolved into a cornerstone of information theory, defining the uncertainty inherent in any signal. High entropy in a system reflects unpredictable noise or interference that scrambles clarity—just as chaotic energy in a water disturbance dissipates focused sound waves. The Big Bass Splash exemplifies this principle: when a bass drops, its initial shock generates a high-energy wavefront radiating outward, its crest acting as a spike in entropy that…
