Abstract
A new model is proposed for the purpose of modelling the ``wave function collapse'' of a two-state quantum system. The collapse to a classical state is driven by a nonlinear evolution equation with an extreme sensitivity to absolute phase. It is hypothesized that the phase, or part of it, is displaying chaotic behaviour. This chaotic behaviour can then be responsible for the apparent indeterminacy we are experiencing for a single quantum system. Through this randomness, the statistical ``ensemble'' behaviour, due to Born, to describe a single quantum system, is no longer needed.
