inchoate
Definition of inchoate:
not organized; lacking order: an inchoate mass of ideas on the subject.
Context: Teachout, Terry. “A Challenge to Martin Scorsese”, Wall Street Journal, Oct 28 2006:
The reason for this is that all great art is ruthlessly selective. It imposes order on the natural world. That’s why sonnets have 14 lines and string quartets are played by four musicians. An art without rules is nothing more than a willful, inchoate stew of random impulses.
