Entropy / Negentropy Phase Space Plot
Thermodynamic Context: Erwin Schrödinger observed that living systems maintain local structure by continually drawing in negentropy (negative entropy) from an open environment.
Negentropy: ΔS = S_max - S = S_max + k Σ (p_i · ln p_i)
In closed isolated systems, the 2nd Law dictates thermal decay ($\frac{dS}{dt} \ge 0$). When Maxwell's Demon injects sorting work into an open boundary, it consumes free energy to create spatial and thermal order.
