boiling

A hexagonal pattern emerges in water when heat is added to it in a uniform manner.
This pattern will persist indefinately if it remains a closed system.
BUT as an open system the uniformity will be disturbed by an imperfection in the plate, inpurities, or heat differentiations.
The order [at our visual scale] bursts into the familiar beginning of a roaring boil.
The threshold is acute but relevant to the beginning of its dissipative phase...magically floating away into a mist.

complexity over simplified...i'm tired.
