Complexity = Complicity

Posted in physics notes at 8:38 pm by nonattender

Complexity does not initially strike me as something that can be overcome by collecting and analyzing more information.  Secondarily, it does not strike me as something that can be that much improved by attempting (any attempt is “active”, any=all, and activity increases information) to limit collection and analysis activities.

It seems like the only things to do would be to actively stop information CREATION (since, by its very nature, information can only be created if it is being analyzed, ie, modify other people as to how their brains work - slow them down or shut them off in some way) -or- to actively embrace complexity and, by our “creative ability”, make things infinitely more complex.

Another method at “active stoppage” might be to fiddle with supply/demand of either constituent of “information”:  which are both…?  extrapolations?

When they set off nukes did it clear the souls of the dead from the atmosphere?  Life itself, as our ultimate catalyst for information creation, is being waged war against…
