Hmmm...I gave your post a few minutes to percolate, and I think I do see it.
I thought of the discrete energy levels or shells of electron orbits. Starting from first principles, you might suppose that electrons could occupy any orbital position, randomly distributed across the range of possibilities. Maybe the particular laws that organize electron energy levels are a sort of filter, in the information scheme of things, that discards all the "illegal" orbits and passes only the specified quanta. Tune your filter, and you change the energy levels of the electrons.
The electromagnetic spectrum, considered as a whole, would appear to be random mass of energy evenly distributed across all frequencies. Being random, the electromagnetic spectrum as a whole has no signal--it conveys no iinformation. Information-carrying signals emerge only when you filter on a very narrow band of the spectrum.
Heisenberg comes to mind. The observer effect could be likened to inserting a filter into the data stream that "passes" only a specifc state--it selects one narrow "signal" out of the entire spectrum of possibilities.
If you could construct different filters, could you construct different physical laws?
he Laws of Physics are a cryptographic key that writes its own message using entroy/chaos as its paper and pencil.
Downright poetic. The cryptographic analogy is a good one. Strongly-encrypted cyphertext is as close to random as possible, and could be conveying a nearly infinite number of signals. Filter it with the key, and one and only one signal emerges from the noise.
A technical point: I don't consider chaos and randomness to be synonymous. Or rather, I distinguish randomness from Chaos, as in Chaos Theory. A chaotic system is organized in the sense that it can form patterns and metastable states, although those patterns never exactly repeat. A chaotic system has similiarities instead of patterns, structures that repeat with variations, typically of scale.
A thought's tickling at the edge of understanding. I started above with linear concepts such as bandpass filters, and I wonder if there are chaotic (fractal) analogs of things like filters? Which matters, since we observe that much of nature is chaotic and nonlinear. A chaotic filter might be one which biases the system to "prefer" a particular metastable state over other metastable states. E.g. a weather filter that "encourages" the system to form rainclouds where you want them, and "discourages" them from forming over your picnic.
