Abstract

The Three Ways That Information Emerges In The Universe are Order Out Of Chaos [Information Structures] Ilya Prigogine Ilya Prigogine won a Nobel prize for dissipative processes far from equilibrium that produce information structures, like Bénard convection cells. He called it "order out of chaos." These "complex" systems have no internal information processing. They are "dumb" structures. They do exert a gross "downward causation" over their physical parts. Order Out Of Order [Information Processors] Erwin Schrödinger showed that all life feeds on a stream of negative entropy from the sun. He called this "order out of order." Biological processes rearrange the information in the negative entropy to create and maintain themselves. They are "information-processing systems." Downward causation is extremely fine, meaning they can exert causal control over component atoms and molecules individually (to be demonstrated). Information Out Of Order.....
