Information Theory is interesting. It's this theory created in the middle of the 20th century that proposes that everything is information, from your own genetic markers to written language. It proposes that we are living information. And somehow it makes me feel like there's less of a border between me and, say, the thousands of billboards and ads and neon signs that chatter at me all day long--because we're both just forms of information.
Like long-lost relatives, getting acquainted.
