Essay Abstract

Information is at the heart of the DNA, the spirit of the arts, philosophy, science and technology, it is in the memory of the electronic machines. Would be information in basic science and cosmology? And if it was, how it manifests itself, how it works, how to see and detect, how to read, how is it organized, how is it formed? These are all challenges that our science must strive to clarify, because there is the secret, the mystery of our universe.

Amazigh,

If given the time and the wits to evaluate over 120 more entries, I have a month to try. My seemingly whimsical title, "It's good to be the king," is serious about our subject.

    Jim,

    Thanks, for taking a look at my work. This is true, it is difficult, but we try.

    best regards

    Amazigh,

      Dear Hải.Caohoàng,

      Thank you for taking a look to my essay. I will do the same for yours.

      Precision on what I think :

      « Today, science has an urgent need for a " revolutionary theory ", " logical and qualitative ", on the functioning

      of the universe and that affects all aspects : mathematics, physics, philosophical, cosmological, sociological,

      economic, political, etc.. »

      best regards,

      Amazigh,

      I have sent an email requesting that FQXi extend to those of you who had their essay posted on July 5, 2013, be allowed additional days to compensate for the days of not being able to rate these essays.

      My experience in conducting the online Tempt Destiny (TD) experiment from 2000 to 2012 gave me an understanding of the complexities involved in administrating an online competition which assures me that the competition will be back up and running soon. Ironically, the inability of not being able to rate the essays correlates with the TD experimental findings, as presented in my essay, which show how the acts of selection are fundamental to our physical existence.

      Anyway, I hope that all entrants will be allocated the same opportunity to have their essay rated when they are posted, and if not possible due to technical difficulties, will have their opportunity adjusted accordingly. Best wishes to you with your entry.

      Manuel

      PS I will be reviewing and rating your entry after this function has been turned back on.

      Amazigh,

      Your conclusions match very well with the findings I have obtained in the 12 year experiment I have recently concluded. So your conjectures are not really conjectures for they are substantiated by actual empirical evidence. Although I would have like to see more contrasting arguments to support your position, I find your essay very clear and to the point.

      I am pleased to rate your essay and wish you the best in this competition.

      Regards,

      Manuel

      Thank you Manuel,

      You're right. I did not try to prove anything, I only take the obvious things. The only positive point in what I am saying is that I will strengthen the camp of those who think like me.

      I have many things to say about the functioning of the Universe, but we cannot say all things in a small restricted space.

      But the more I said, the most basic, the most fundamental, the most important, the most essential is that Principle of eDuality, It is the first one, the founder of the Universe, and that nothing, absolutely nothing works without It.

      Such is my irrevocable conclusion, so much the movement and play of opposites are there shining. And as I said it, if Science knew successful by following the one, it going to experience an unprecedented revolution in following the other one.

      I wanted to be accurate in my article on one point and evasive at other points, as most of my work is to come.

      You will be surprised to learn how duality governs our world, and how Wheeler was right on information.

      But before arriving at a fair view of our universe and our world, we have to start by correcting what is not quite right in our Science, beginning with the name of quantum mechanics and the theory of relativity.

      Here is what I propose as a fundamental correction: "Quantum and Wave Mechanics" instead of "Quantum Mechanics" and "Theory of Relativity and Absolute" instead of "Theory of Relativity".

      Accuracy: The "e" of "eDuality" is not a mistake, it is in anticipation of a new Science announced.

      Good luck.

      Dear Hannou,

      Thank you for presenting your nice essay. I saw the abstract and will post my comments soon. You put DNA in this . It is very good. And you can produce matter from your thinking or from information description of that matter. . . . ?

      I am requesting you to go through my essay also. And I take this opportunity to say, to come to reality and base your arguments on experimental results.

      I failed mainly because I worked against the main stream. The main stream community people want magic from science instead of realty especially in the subject of cosmology. We all know well that cosmology is a subject where speculations rule.

      Hope to get your comments even directly to my mail ID also. . . .

      Part of abstract:

      - -Material objects are more fundamental- - is being proposed in this paper; It is well known that there is no mental experiment, which produced material. . . Similarly creation of matter from empty space as required in Steady State theory or in Bigbang is another such problem in the Cosmological counterpart. . . . In this paper we will see about CMB, how it is generated from stars and Galaxies around us. And here we show that NO Microwave background radiation was detected till now after excluding radiation from Stars and Galaxies. . . .

      . . . . We should use our minds to down to earth realistic thinking. There is no point in wasting our brains in total imagination which are never realities. It is something like showing, mixing of cartoon characters with normal people in movies or people entering into Game-space in virtual reality games or Firing antimatter into a black hole!!!. It is sheer a madness of such concepts going on in many fields like science, mathematics, computer IT etc. . . .

      "Material objects are more fundamental"..... in other words "IT from Bit" is true.

      1. It is well known that there is no mental experiment, which produced material.

      2. John Wheeler did not produce material from information.

      3. Information describes material properties. But a mere description of material properties does not produce material.

      4. There are Gods, Wizards, and Magicians, allegedly produced material from nowhere. But will that be a scientific experiment?

      ....And your question is like asking, -- which is first? Egg or Hen?-- in other words Matter is first or Information is first? Is that so? In reality there is no way that Matter comes from information.

      Matter is another form of Energy. Matter cannot be created from nothing. Any type of vacuum cannot produce matter. Matter is another form of energy. Energy is having many forms: Mechanical, Electrical, Heat, Magnetic and so on..

      .....Either way your abstract argument based empirical evidence is strong given that "a mere description of material properties does not produce material". While of course materials do give information.

      I think you deserve a place in the final based on this alone. Concise - simple - but undeniable.

      ===============

      Please try Dynamic Universe Model with some numerical values, give initial values of velocities, take gravitation into consideration( because you can not experiment in ISOLATION). complete your numerical experiment.

      later try changing values of masses and initial values of velocities....

      Calculate with different setups and compare your results, if you have done a physical experiment.

      I sincerely feel it is better to do experiment physically, or numerically instead of breaking your head on just logic. This way you will solve your problem faster.....

        Dear Satyavarapu Naga Parameswara Gupta,

        I read your essay. To be honest a lot of things I do not agree, but not right.

        I see that we do not have the same idea about what may be the information. For me, and I hope for a lot of other information that is all that exists, all that is reality, everything is an object or phenomenon.

        And I would like to have your opinion and so to get a better view.

        Best regards

        Dear amazigh mabrouk hannou,

        Thank you for reading my essay and starting a nice discussion.

        You said - - - - - I see that we do not have the same idea about what may be the information. For me, and I hope for a lot of other information that is all that exists, all that is reality, everything is an object or phenomenon.- - - - -

        In my opinion, we have physical 5 senses and a sixth sense called mind. We form pictures of all the real things around us in our mind from these senses. Mind interprets these real things around us for forming these pictures. All these information will be lost when we die.

        We invented the communication to transfer these pictures to fellow humans.

        This communication uses information which is nothing but description of our mental picture.

        But you say information is real, how it is real?

        Is there any other information other than what I said?

        Please reply in this thread so that I will get a communication from FQXi, and I can reply you, , , ,

        best

        Dear Satyavarapu Naga Parameswara Gupta,

        I did not make a mistake : we do not have the same idea of the word « information ». For me, any object is information. The word « information » is taken here in the large and extended sens, in the physical sense of the term and not in its abstract, symbolic and limited shape.

        We define the word according to the conception which we have of the Nature and the reality. And not according to the common opinion, or its definition in a standard dictionary.

        This is how I see the word « information » and I have my reasons which are directly related to a particular concept of the Universe.

        If you design an object in your computer and you print it in three dimensions.

        The object works, as if it was made at the factory. The symbolic information that you transformed into a physical information, is this real or an invention ?

        You are free to have a different idea of the word « information », but I have another opinion.

        With all my respects.

        Dear amazigh,

        I have down loaded your essay and soon post my comments on it. Meanwhile, please, go through my essay and post your comments.

        Regards and good luck in the contest,

          Dear Sreenath BN,

          In your Introduction : «CI is understood as a collection of bits whereas QI, by contrast, is a continuum.»

          Is it a mistake ?

          It appears to me to see good ideas. I will immediately read your essay and I come back to you.

          Hi Amazigh,

          I agree with you and have been working to develop such a concept for several years. In the context of the simulation paradigm, I have developed a theoretical picture that has results consistent with observational cosmology. When I conducted a test to see if the paradigm is true of our reality I found that it was, and discovered a number of biological, cultural and historical aspects. While I was not able to survey all of this within nine pages, you can get a taste of it in my Software Cosmos essay. Perhaps it will answer some of the questions you pose at the beginning of your essay.

          Hugh

            Dear Amazigh,,

            Thanks for your nice essay, well done

            I enjoy reading it and rate it accordingly

            I agree with you and among all these what is the central idea?

            i think is symmetry, my essay may interest you

              Dear Joe,

              « Information is not reality. Information has nothing to do with reality. Reality is an absolute. It is the ultimate condition. It is the only real condition. One cannot acquire any more of reality than one has already gotten.

              The more information one collects, the less one will ever know about reality. »

              Things cannot be quite good or quite bad. We cannot generalize like that.

              My opinion is that the information is any object, any phenomenon.

              And our reality and information are almost One.

              Where there is no information, there is nothing to see, nothing to observe.

              Good luck.

                Amazigh,

                We see with our eyes as do all animals and fish. We differ from the animals and the fish in that we stupidly pretend to know what we are looking at. Each animal and fish has sense enough to know that it is an animal or a fish. Each man pretends to know that he knows more or looks better or is stronger or richer or is different than other men. He has to qualify and quantify everything he sees. All the information we use was imparted by men who have been dead for centuries.

                Thanks for wishing me good luck.

                Joe

                Dear Amazigh,

                Your question, "CI is understood as a collection of bits whereas QI, by contrast, is a continuum Is it a mistake?".

                No it is not a mistake but a scientifically accepted fact.

                I will shortly post my comments on your essay; mean while, please, go through my essay and post your comments in my thread.

                All the best,

                Sreenath
