Does it occur to anyone that energy is not necessarily synonymous with the information it generates?

We are mobile organisms, so our sentience coalesces into a sequence of perceptions, in order to navigate. Consequently our perception of time is as the point of the present moving past to future, which physics codifies as measures of duration.

The reality is that change turns future to past. Tomorrow becomes yesterday, because the earth turns. Duration is the present, as the events coalesce and dissolve.

There is no literal dimension of time, because the past is consumed by the present, to inform and drive it. Causality and conservation of energy. Cause becomes effect.

Energy is conserved, because it is the present. It creates time, as well as temperature, pressure, color and sound. Time is frequency, events are amplitude.

Energy drives the wave, while the fluctuations rise and fall. So energy goes past to future, while the patterns it generates go future to past.

As consciousness goes past to future, while the perceptions, emotions and thoughts giving it form and structure go future to past.

Though it is our digestive, respiratory and circulatory systems processing the energy, feeding the flame, while the central nervous system processes the information. The function of which is to sort signals from the noise, in order to navigate. So we think of reality in terms of order and chao, rather than energy and information.

It might be information all the way down, but it's energy all the way up.

Waves tend to either synchronize, which is centripetal, or harmonize, which is centrifugal. So lots of energy in one big wave is order, because it is little information describing lots of energy. While lots of little waves is chaos, because it takes lots of information to describe them. Though they harmonize, as the energy tends to distribute fairly evenly.

Thus there are galaxies, as the primal feedback loop of energy radiating toward infinity, while form coalesces inward, toward equilibrium.

Though that black hole at the center tends to eject what falls in as quasars, out the poles. Which are like ginormous lasers, as synchronized light waves.

Or we can go with the imaginary stuff, like virtual particles and multiverses.
