I 89
Definition information/Pinker: a relationship between two things that are caused by a lawful procedure - E.g. embodied info: age rings of a tree. But they were not even produced by the growth.
>Cause, >Effect, >Causality.
I 90
Information is nothing special - it can be found everywhere where a cause has an effect.
Searle would say, it cannot be found, only we can find it, because we must first fill it with meaning. Pinker ditto.
>Meaning, >Information/Searle.
Symbol/Pinker: transmits info and makes something happen.
>Symbol, >Sign, >Interpretation.
