The Information Theories

Earlier this year I remodeled the cosmology and geology theories with illustrations and images and provided an abbreviated version of each. We saw the abbreviated versions in "Cosmology Theory In Diagrams", January 2024, and "Geology Theory With Satellite Imagery And Maps", March 2024.

The major theories on this blog also include four information theories. I decided that these theories would not benefit from any images or abbreviated versions. But here is a description of, and links to, the information theories. 

"The Theory Of Complexity" is all about how information works. How energy and information is really the same thing. The many ways that information is manifested in our universe. How we can express complexity in numerical terms, as the denominator of a ratio. How we are at a higher level of complexity than our inanimate surroundings and this is why we have senses and free will. It is also why we can be wrong about things, because there is not enough potential complexity in our inanimate surroundings for everything that we can conceive of to exist. Our higher level of complexity is why we must work to survive because the surrounding environment is always trying to pull us down to it's level. This is why we need multiple plants for a balanced diet, because plants are of equal complexity but greater intricacy, than the inanimate surroundings. This is why plants are alive but do not need senses or free will. It is also why we need multiple plants for a balanced diet. Here is a link to "The Theory Of Complexity":

"The Fundamental Patterns In Everything" is about how everything that can exist or can happen falls into certain patterns. This was my first theory, I thought of this before the cosmology theory. This is not cosmology. It is actually a branch of mathematics more fundamental than the counting numbers. There are four tiers of patterns, the ones of each level is based on those below. The First Tier, which I originally called "The Theory Of Primes", is the most basic and would apply to anything that can exist or can happen, even if there was a universe that was completely different than ours. The Second Tier is manifested by the inanimate matter of our universe but would not necessarily be by a universe where the rules were different. The Third Tier applies to the structure and biology of living things. The Fourth Tier is manifested by the lives of living things, specifically ourselves.

"The Lowest Information Point" is based on the other information theories and the cosmology theory. We know that the universe always seeks the lowest energy state and we know that energy and information is really the same thing. This means that the universe must also seek "The Lowest Information Point". The implications of this are very far-reaching and explain all of the scales of the structures of matter in the universe. The universe achieves the Lowest Information Point by reusing information. What I mean by this can be shown by related ratios. These are equal ratios where the numerator of one is the denominator of the other. A / B = B / C contains less information than A / B = C / D because the first equation only contains three pieces of information while the second contains four. This is how the universe works and it reveals why the scales of matter, from atoms to galaxies, are what they are. Here is a link to "The Lowest Information Point":

There are actually only three information theories, because I now consider "The Flow Of Information Through The Universe" to be part of "The Lowest Information Point", but it is still displayed as a separate theory. This is about the many ways that the universe reuses information, and how this achieves The Lowest Information Point. This theory is specifically about the larger scales of matter being built on the information in their component scales. An example that I often use is how the Solar System is composed of atoms and the orbits of the planets are built on the orbitals of electrons in atoms.
