[Fis] THE FOURTH GREAT DOMAIN OF SCIENCE: INFORMATIONAL?

Sat May 16 07:34:09 CEST 2015

Cari Tutti,
la legge dell'informazione e il processo di tras-informazione valgono per
l'intera esistenza e tutta la conoscenza, a condizione che l'informazione
sia intesa come un dare o prendere forma delle persone, delle idee, degli
animali e delle cose. L'informazione costituisce quindi l'essenza
epistemologica (struttura e fini della scienza) di ogni branca del sapere e
dell'attività umana e naturale: il pluri-verso, le scienze dell'uomo e
della natura, l'arte, la musica, la poesia, l'archeologia, etc. Credo di
essere stato il primo a proporre la teoria del valore quale combinazione
creativa dell'energia e dell'informazione nel campo dell'attività e della
scienza economica, sin dagli anni Settanta del secolo scorso. Naturalmente,
sia l'energia (informazione della natura) sia l'informazione (energia della
cultura) possono intendersi entrambe come informazione in senso generale.
Per questo ho ri-significato e ri-compreso la Nuova economia in funzione
della teoria del valore-informazione. Ovviamente, in ragione delle diverse
categorie di informazione (naturale o termodinamica, genetica, matematica o
cibernetica e semiotico-semantica) è possibile specificare e dettagliare
ogni particolare forma di conoscenza. Dunque il mondo dell'uomo ( e di ogni
essere vivente) e della natura è governato da 'un'armonia meravigliosa o
biblio-metrica di cui si avvale anche la biblioteconomia.
Grazie se sopportate la mia forma linguistica italiana.
Un saluto affettuoso.
Francesco Rizzo
