[Fis] "express matter and energy in terms of information"

[Carlos Gershenson]

Dear Krassimir,

Apologies for my slow reply, I was at a conference.

The fact that you wrote “cheese” can be seen already as information. You can add more details about its material composition, as many as you want, up to the atomic levels. If you can name them, they are information.

This is just an epistemological stance, but I would say that in some cases it can be useful. Details in 
Gershenson, C. (2012). The world as evolving information. In A. Minai, D. Braha, & Y. Bar-Yam (Eds.), Unifying themes in complex systems (pp. 100–115, Vol. 7).

Best wishes,
Carlos
