<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:13.5pt">Dear Krassimir,<br>
You may remember your 2017 paper “data versus information” where you presented part of our FIS discussions that took place at that time (<a href="https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.academia.edu/85206414/Data_Versus_Information__;!!D9dNQwwGXtA!VC98gCslQ55sT6EUtr2_NiwYFGpKdx9aGS9XoYmtP3LAmFJcp1knXOdfazyS6T0HtKmPI83qDmR3Lop2A7vuRSCmM4q01zIG$">https://www.academia.edu/85206414/Data_Versus_Information</a>).
<br>
Don’t you think that some points of the paper could be part of an answer to the question “where does information come from”?<br>
Another way to introduce that subject could be to recall that information exists by the meaning it has for agents that manage it (create it or use it). Would you let us know how you position your today answer to the question relatively to the 2017 paper?
<br>
(on my side I’m still with <a href="https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://philpapers.org/rec/MENITA-7__;!!D9dNQwwGXtA!VC98gCslQ55sT6EUtr2_NiwYFGpKdx9aGS9XoYmtP3LAmFJcp1knXOdfazyS6T0HtKmPI83qDmR3Lop2A7vuRSCmMy43dmrd$">https://philpapers.org/rec/MENITA-7</a>)<br>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:13.5pt">2. Information is a type of subjective reflection that is recognized by the subject what it reflects. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:13.5pt">I.e. information is a class of subjective reflections that the subject eventually uses to create mental models.<br>
<br>
The first answer is unconstructive. It leads to passivity in the study of informational phenomena. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:13.5pt">Note that apart from vague definitions of what information is, nothing else is offered - neither useful theories, nor practical implications.<br>
<br>
While the second answer gives wide scope for research and development. </span><o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="font-size:13.5pt">There are currently a number of information theories, two of which are General.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="font-size:13.5pt">Thanks to the fact that after our conversation in Tbilisi, Mark agreed that information is an impact that is recognized by the "infological system" and causes a change in it, he
came to a serious result in the form of a "General Theory of Information".</span><o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:13.5pt">The other, the earlier "General Information Theory", completely steps on the primary concept of "reflection" and builds a neat system, which for years has been used in the training of computer scientists and
the realization of new computational approaches, which come close in terms of possibilities to some characteristics of life consciousness.<br>
