Information

This is a short film about information. Although most of us think we know what we mean when we say "information," we sometimes confuse the medium with the message. This is a companion piece to our film about architecture. Want to learn more about how information will drive profound changes in our world in the coming decade? Maybe learn how you can not only survive but thrive? Pre-order our new book, it's a survival guide for the future. http://www.amazon.com/Trillions-Thriv...

"Information is what allows us..." That's all :D.

Great video!

This is a very good example of the how the universe works. Information is complexed and its Mathematical at the quantum level, you simplified it, nice job... You talk about non local and local, high entropy and low entropy with adding particle entanglement. You did say atoms are irrelevant, so true and you must have an understanding physics. I love how you communicated this.

I like your response, oh yes I do. My only regret is that your words are too few.

I'm glad you responded. I needed to reconsider your video, and my assumption (as you pointed out). I'll have to favorite it so I don't lose it again.

I think the medium is the messenger

[Kongo GoReala]

your lack of information may lead you to assume. without the proper information you only assume that the favorite mug is in view.

The point is that data can change into information if you place it in the right context. E.G. 'Orange' isn't information but when I say: Orange is my favorite color it is.
