It focuses on two main questions:
What is computation?
How does nature compute?

Let us take terms like information, computation, etc. Are they
mental or mathematical?
Information is vague, and can be both.
Computation is mathematical, by using the Church

I have a more general question. I am not a mathematician and I do not
quite understand the relationship between mathematics and the world that
surround me.
It seems to me that your writing implies that there is the intimate
connections between mathematics and the Universe. Could

you convince all physicists that multivers exists, I will start
