I don't think you can explicate such a connection, especially not without any terms defined. In fact, it is just utterly pointless to try to develop a theory in a field that hasn't even been defined in a coherent way. It's not like it's close to being defined, either.

In any science I can think of people began developing it using intuitive notions, only being able to come up with definitions after substantial progress had been made.
