Information Flux Damage (IFD)


... still a working title only, but sounds good. In short - one more form of material damage to be added to textbooks on material science.

In former blogs I came to terms with possibility - only possibility - that substantial material damage can be inflicted , by using infinitesimally small action.


(From point of view of formal logic, it is sufficient to name 1 existing example to prove possibility, and we did). The other matter is "how ?"....

This second thing is considerably more difficult . Formerly known means to execute a complicated instruction - a program - on huge number of actors ( in this case : molecular structure faults) required ,basically, an information string addressing each of them to instruct it where to move or what to do. Considering low-energy transmission, time limit , topological constraints and sheer number of points - seems unfeasible for human-written programmed instruction. However ....

Again, we know at least a few physical examples, where approach is holistic , instead of particular.

That is, the master issues only general order, an i n t e n t to the system, and the system follows by itself, according to own rules, achieving final state as desired by author.

If we extend the concept of an author/master to Evolution, one good example is life itself. Evolution wanted an organ to support spatial orientation - so biology, through photo-sensible cells, then specialised photo-tissues developed such complex organ as human eye. Of course, it needed quite a lot of time...
