Information generation does not mean a process which can be formalized and mapped in a mathematical function and is therefore computable. Rather, it is a process by which novelty emerges. It is bound to a certain system which is capable of organizing itself. In the course of self-organization, novel qualities come into being which characterize several levels of information. One can speak of information in the situation where the deterministic connection between cause and effect is broken up, that is, where a system's own activity comes into play, and the cause becomes the mere trigger of self-determined processes in the system, which finally result in the effect which is constituted by the reaction of the system to an event, by the response of it to a stimulus, or by the solution to a problem - in short, where the system makes a decision and a possibility is realized by an irreducible choice.

Can I be the record ? =D
Thank you for posting dives deep into neural sparks to GutterGirls~
Well I listened about the Amen beat and how copyright material can limit our experiences. I started on How Creativity is being strangled but I'll have to come back and finish it. I want to give it "unhurried time" to listen. All very valid points there, very gestalt moments.
I'll be back. I hope others take the time to listen, too. :)
BTW, you may not have noticed but you accidentally put my name up there!
Well, thanks there Goofy!
