So how did we get here then? The answer is my existential depression (sigh). Just kidding. Maybe not. Who knows, let's move on. Swiftly.
What if that crack on the sidewalk did break someone's grandma's back? What if the Hindenburg never blew up, and we didn't abandon blimps as a society? What if one little point on the timeline was changed ever so slightly? That is Chaos Theory.
Color Inspiration: I was going through my late father's comics collection when I stumbled upon a box of old sci-fi artwork from the 70s and 80s that stunned me. While it is hard to put colors to the abstract themes of chaos theory, I found that these comics and the dystopian or sometimes euphoric scenes that they depict did a wonderful job of synthesizing the concepts of parallel dimensions, alternate realities, and much more into lush color palettes.

DISCLAIMER
- Every Singularity switch will appear differently due to the aluminum plating process, please see pictures for variance. By purchasing this product, you are agreeing to these terms.
- The Keylabs "Chaos" metal artisan will be a random double infill of the five accent colors of the set (pink, purple, green, yellow, and red). Please see the animation to see a few out of the twenty possible combinations (a single color will only appear once per artisan). By purchasing this product, you are agreeing to these terms.
- The images shown are used for illustrative purposes only. No keyboards shown are included. While we aim to accurately estimate and reproduce colors, there may be minor variations in the color of the actual product because of differences in display output due to lighting and digital photography and color settings and capabilities of monitors. By purchasing this product, you are agreeing to these terms.

The Order and Chaos base kits provide support for 60%, 65%, 75%, and TKL layouts for terminal ISO and ANSI layouts. There is also support for ergonomic/split keyboard layouts (split space bars and a second B). The R4 2.25U shift supports 660-like and type K layouts. F13 requiring boards and 40% keyboards (R3 1.50U Enter, R3 1.25U Tab, R2 1.75U Backspace) are also supported.
Novelties explainer:
The concepts of ordered and disordered systems are two commonly studied and connected topics within chaos theory that I wanted to represent artistically in the novelties. In the paired columns of novelties, the symbol of chaos and the symbol of extropy (the extent of a living or organizational system's capacity and drive for improvement and growth) are featured. Continuing down from R2-R4, two columns of novelties depict fundamental shapes (hexagon, square, triangle, and circle/spiral) in ordered and disordered forms.
The ISO enter novelty is an abstract rendition of the nautilus shell/logarithmic spiral motif (for anyone interested in what exactly the spiral ratio is, I recommend reading this and this).
Two R4 1.25U and 1.50U text novelties commemorate famous scientists who have contributed significantly to the field of chaos theory.
