Alien Information Theory: Core Idea
- Andrew Gallimore's book 'Alien Information Theory' explores the nature of reality and the role of DMT.
- Reality is theorized as an information-generating code, with fundamental units self-organizing and complexifying.
Reality's Building Blocks
- Reality's fundamental units are much smaller than atoms, resembling bits in digital physics.
- These bits interact based on simple rules, leading to emergent complex structures like quarks and atoms.
Emergence of Complexity
- Complex systems arise from numerous simple systems interacting, like flocking birds or neurons in the brain.
- Human intelligence may have emerged this way but how exactly remains a mystery.
