I'm going to talk to @parismarx.com about his timely new book 'Hyperscale' at London's Frontline Club next Wed 28th. Our conversation about the frontlines of data centre resistance & the implications of big tech's war on resources will be followed by a Q&A. www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/bo….

But, yeah, if what falls on our sensory surfaces is "information" that's a really strong claim — it's good for scientists to say what model, formalisms, theories they use, but it's slightly different to see it outside a direct quote as if "information" is a neutral word like "thing" or a phenomenon.

It's always interesting to see journalists reflect the information theory metaphor on topics like this where it slips into scientific model... > crows and primates are processing the same information
