[Fis] definitions of information by Theil (1972) derived from Shannon (1948); "carriers"

Fri Jan 27 10:50:55 CET 2023

Dear Joseph and all:

"information does not exist without material carriers - code elements"
and
  "real energy changes occur in the information process"

are united in our paradigm based on the recognition of “consubstantial and
indivisible” physics and mathematics.

 The information process exists only at their junction, and for a
biological cell we know an absolutely transparent act of turning a "word"
into a "deed": a DNA text into a material active structure of a protein
enzyme. And in human language, this direct closure is carried out by a 3D
printer instead of a ribosome.

Therefore, I propose to state decisively that "in the information process"
real energy changes ALWAYS occur, and not just epistemological ones".
According to Efim Liberman and quantum physics, this energy changes can’t
be less, then Plank’s constant.
