It is extraordinary to me that nature seems to do things much the same way we do things in virtual reality. Right down to only really simulating the parts of the universe that are being observed or measured in some way. Every time two particles interact, the bits flip- processing takes place- and so the universe always maintains the causal chain of events and is ready to spit out the end result at any given moment for any who cares to measure or observe it. But until then it rests in super position- neither this nor that- but some crazy mix of possibilities that sits in-between ready to collapse one way or the other into a 3d reality our senses can process. It reminds me of those cheap paper backs we read as kids- if you choose action A go to page 23- if you choose action B go to page 38, etc., etc.- each path leading to it's own unique result. In those books your possible futures already exists- they're already laid out in black and white, determined. You can skip ahead and see your fate- do our futures already exist out there- some when? Relativity would suggest they do- if someone can see my future- it must exist in some sense. It boggles the mind- but chasing the answers brings us closer to truth.

I consider information to be a layer of abstraction used to describe things. It is useful to us because we can use it along with processes to do things.

Thanks for another great episode! It seems to me that the bedrock of cosmology is indeed information, however this tenet can't be held in a trascendental sense. In the last analysis we always see our own reflection in the mirror of the universe, because we are nature's legislators as Kant said more than 200 hundreds years ago. However it is interesting that some acts of inspiration, and altered states of consciousness give us glimpses of how this thing-in-it-self actually works, which brings to mind this passage from Philip K. Dick, VALIS (1981): "Entry #48. ON OUR NATURE. It is proper to say: we appear to be memory coils (DNA carriers capable of experience) in a computer-like thinking system which, although we have correctly recorded and stored thousands of years of experiential information, and each of us possesses somewhat different deposits from all the other life forms, there is a malfunction - a failure - of memory retrieval. There lies the trouble in our particular subcircuit ‘Salvation’ through gnosis - more properly anamnesis (the loss of amnesia) - although it has individual significance for each of us - a quantum leap in perception, identity, cognition, understanding, world- and self-experience, including immortality - it has greater and further importance for the system as a whole, inasmuch as these memories are data needed by it and valuable to it, to its overall functioning. Therefore it is in the process of self-repair, which includes: rebuilding our subcircuit via linear and orthogonal time changes, as well as continual signaling to us to stimulate blocked memory banks within us to fire and hence retrieve what is there. The external information or gnosis, then, consists of disinhibiting instructions, with the core content actually intrinsic to us - that is, already there (first observed by Plato; viz: that learning is a form of remembering). The ancients possessed techniques (sacraments and rituals) used largely in the Greco-Roman mystery religions, including early Christianity, to induce firing and retrieval, mainly with a sense of its restorative value to the individuals; the Gnostics, however, correctly saw the ontological value to what they called the Godhead Itself, the total entity."

Fantastic content as always..will you please interview Melvin Vopson at the University of Portsmouth ? He a has a newly published paper on the equivalence of information, matter and energy. There is even a proposed experiment to prove it. Anyway, it is cutting edge and related to this

Discover "faith in God" in the scientific methodology through only three stages: Faith in any hypothesis precedes the discovery stage Faith exists in any hypothesis Faith is the basis for building epistemological knowledge.

Since there is no other possibility, the answer must be "yes"

To know the Universe, you must drill down to it smallest parts, far smaller then atoms and muons, etc. Information at thislevel hasn't been locally imprinted unless by an Observer like Us. This is how we individually and collectively create a reality we can work with. Watch Don Hoffman as well! At the smallest level, there is no spin, no computations, just pure energy.

I find that information gives energy and matter their functionality, dependent on human perception (consciousness and conscience), (in)forming our realities. So, if you try to escape this law of physics (like politicians do all the time), universal entropy (disorder) is accelerated, when we abide to it (within the limitations of reality, I coined 'realimiteit') a state of equilibrium can be reached, which needs to be steered in real time with information.

If information is fundamental to existence, then isn't the ability to be impressed upon by information even more fundamental?

Focusing on the information seems to be missing the forest for the trees. Edit: seems like the German scientist towards the end addresses this. I like this guy.

That's true, but only if the universe is the type of computer we understand. Where the model gets tricky is considering things like computational power, since the universe sort of runs itself. It may make more sense, then, to think about the universe as being the result of a function within a computer: a simulation. If, however, the universe is a computer simulation, we have to define the terms. I will split the universe into two parts: the function converting previous conditions into new ones, the universal function; and the space onto which the conditions are mapped, the universal map (creative, I know.) Given that the universe is the universal function displayed on the universal map, computational energy needs to be redefined, as well. Computational energy, here, is just the necessary conditions for the universal function to compute a new result. Considering all of this, the only options I can see are: A) The computational energy for the universal function is derived from the function in itself. This basically means that the function happens because it happened before. The problem with this model is it doesn't explain initial conditions, since there would be no previous state of the function. This is only explained if you say the universal function does regress infinitely, but, until the big bang, it computed a null state. B) The computational energy for the function is derived from the universal map. This basically means that the only condition for the function is the space onto which it is mapped. This also results in weird initial conditions, but can't be explained off the same way. This either says the universal map has existed for forever or it doesn't exist. Basically it doesn't work. C) The universal function has no computational energy, it runs arbitrarily. No contradictions I can see here, but it becomes a bit hand wavey. The whole point is basically just to say the universe can't itself be a computer running a simulation which is itself. It can be broken up and re-explained, but it doesn't make sense to say it's easier to compute things if time slows unless you believe this universe is a simulation in a computer.

Maybe there is a kind of information that comes from basic constituents of the matter properties like leptons/baryons that we don't understand yet . However the evolved complex structure of information that matter can take is based on those constituents and is like a firmware software of the universe from where the rest derives.

It's "Bits from It," not the other way around. Mind is primary. It projects ItSelf in a fractal holographic chaotic distribution, with every moment of choice in every seemingly individuated mind being a full-throttle instance of the Whole, just like the Upanishads said. The main thing to know is that your choice at that point is between Ultimate Mind versus any lifeless variation in the cosmos' programming. The Upanishads did not grok the essence of this relentless and deeply personal choice. But now (since 1948) we can, because information theory and system dynamics make plain the lay of the land for us.

So basically, the universe is an ordered system. Either information has emerged from the universe, or the universe emerged from information? Perhaps the information only exists as a concept in our minds as we observe and measure the universe? Or perhaps information is a product of intelligent design...?

The only question now is, how do we level up?

Is something processing information or just process on its own as the nature of information?

"In the beginning information flowed from an Infinite Mind and gave rise to time, matter and energy."

Might it be as simple as depicted in Genisis? "The light" (All the energy/mass made avilable that when manifested, has the potential for any possibility). "The word of God" (All the information necessary that when maniofested uppon the light, brings into "reality" any possibility.) Do we not already use information, impressed on mass (same as energy) to create new realities? For example building a house, something that basically starts from high entropy dirt (Many microstates) and then transforms into a lower entropy place (fewer microstates) in which we can live. It aeems to be straight forward enough.
