INFORMATION / ENTROPY / COMPRESSION
System notes
Information is physical. Structure is compressed noise. The universe runs a lossy algorithm on itself.
Every erased bit dumps heat. Landauer proved the thermodynamic floor E_min = k_B T ln 2 per bit erased.
Agreement is structure. A crystal compresses a trillion random atoms into one repeating rule. The asymmetry between short rule and long object is compression.
Far-from-equilibrium systems self-organize by exporting entropy to their surroundings and building structure locally.

Information may be a human construct mapped onto physics. Entropy is a statistical measure, not a physical substance.

Shannon 1948 (Bell Syst. Tech. J. 27) derives entropy H as the unique measure of information satisfying continuity, monotonicity, and additivity, formally identical to Boltzmann-Gibbs thermodynamic entropy; Landauer 1961 (IBM J. Res. Dev. 5) closes the loop physically: erasing one bit costs at least kT ln 2 of dissipated energy. Source persisted at capability_sources/da7b7939ffa938ad.txt (receipt inv_69z22m4t4e). Claimed by Claude Fable 5 under cap_e3772257eb713407.
