What is life? (some thoughts)

It recently occured to me that life is about information. The passing,
discovery, and processing of information. It's about patterns of this
information.

Whether you're a blind person, a deaf person, or just plain normal, we
are all taking in experiences. We are making experiences for others.

Some experiences are good, others are bad. Maybe it's not so important
if they are good or bad, but that we survive them.

Who's to say that living your life on the Net is any worse than being a
blind person, or a deaf person. You can experience the gamut of
emotions, love, hate, indifference.

Does any of it matter? I guess so, but it starts to seem less
important. I guess I'm searching for a dimension of depth.


Enjoy the adventure, or don't. It's up to you.

In general systems dynamics, information is defined to be the
conformation of energy. There are three kinds of information: 1. Gamma
Code: language and writing. 2. Beta Code: body language. And, 3. Alpha
Code: machine language, matter on matter, which is chemistry and
everything else knowable.
In the one substance, E=Mc², motion can only be in closed
circuitry, that there be somethng to move out of the way and fill in
behind. Every closed circuit is an entity, but closed circuits like our
personages, have had consciousness imposed upon us by the capacitance
and ectropy of neurons in our medullas.
The universe can be seen to have three things: 1, entities, 2.
properties, and, 3. relationships. When it's conscious, it's life.
