Dear William,

We are at the end of this essay contest.

In conclusion, at the question to know if Information is more fundamental than Matter, there is a good reason to answer that Matter is made of an amazing mixture of eInfo and eEnergy, at the same time.

Matter is thus eInfo made with eEnergy rather than answer it is made with eEnergy and eInfo ; because eInfo is eEnergy, and the one does not go without the other one.

eEnergy and eInfo are the two basic Principles of the eUniverse. Nothing can exist if it is not eEnergy, and any object is eInfo, and therefore eEnergy.

And consequently our eReality is eInfo made with eEnergy. And the final verdict is : eReality is virtual, and virtuality is our fundamental eReality.

Good luck to the winners,

And see you soon, with good news on this topic, and the Theory of Everything.

    Hello Amazigh,

    The essay rating period is coming to a close, and it was more enjoyable participating in the event and reading quality work. I'm looking forward to next year already. I hope that people will still read the group of essays for this year and ask questions they have even when the "contest" is over. Your view is subtly different than others because it says info has energy itself, or that energy is the origin of data. I read your essay and commented, but did not rate it because I don't have my voter code with me. I will later.

    I think the most important thoughts I've come across during the start and approaching close of this event, and not necessarily all from this site, is that info corresponds with expansion and movement. The more you know about something, the more spread out it is. Dr. Susskind talked about this. There are still deep mysteries out there about the nature of information, but this essay posting and the following colloquium I feel has helped out numerous people who participated.

    Cheers,

    Amos.

    Dear William Amos Carine,

    Yes, (e) is a mystery.

    (e) for eEnergy, for a new science in coming : a binary Science, dual Science, fundamental Science.

    I have discovered the functionning of eUniverse : eDuality is in all things, like motion.

    And all things arising, by couple, pair.

    « simple, complex », « wave, particle », « space, time », « matter, antimatter », « electicity, magnetism », « Weak force , Strong force », « gravity, expansion of space », and so on...

    Duality is in all cultures (Egyptians, Greecs, Indians, Chineses, ...) and in each one of us, but never explained and equaled like in China.

    The « Yin, Yang » duality is full of truth, but this must be completed and reinterpreted, like our Science.

    eDuality is present in physics, mathematics, philosophy, economics, biology, chemistry, religion, our thinking, in computers and mechanical machinery, linguistics, and so on...

    Each one of us speaks with eDuality.

    eDuality is the same everywhere.

    There is one kind of eDuality when this concept is clear known.

    eUniverse is very simple at the begining, very complex after.

    This eDuality, these opposites, these contraries, are the 0 and 1 of information.

    It takes a book to explain all these concepts : eEnergy, eInfo, eReality, eDuality, and so on...

    Good luck,

    Amazigh H.

    P.s. I'll be happy if you see the duality that is in the music, your favourite hobby of art, and you indicate me that, to include this information as reference, in my next book.

    Best wishes,

    Amazigh H.

    William,

    I have open and read your essay just accidentally - if speaking honestly! And I come too surprised by such question: how this inquisitive man can understand and formulate clearly the essence of matter when it remains still dark for many of ,,leading,, theorists! Yes, my dear! The ,,information,, and ,,bits,, as well as our language, mathematics, symbols and formulas etc are our creations only! Thanks of these we can made the picture of reality and describe/investigate its essence and property, and nothing more! I think this simple think must comprehend any healthy brain.

    So, I welcome your work (that is very close to my spirit!) and have rated it on high score with pleasure! Hope my work will deserved to your attention.

    Best wishes to you!

    George Kirakosyan.

      Many thanks Dear Amos,

      I am glad that we can share many of our viewpoints.

      Best wishes!

      George

        Hi Paul,

        I am also in awe that so many different views were all centered around information and that they were well written too. I have no idea how many I've read, but your reading is very industrious.

        Thanks for the notice of your essay.

        Good Luck,

        Amos.

        Dear Crowell,

        Sorry for my first quick reply! I had a misconception here, as is common when thinking about anything.

        Best regards,

        Amos Carine.
