I think you are right, Lou, with respect to Deutsch who actually met Everett III with the multiple universe hypothesis. The sole name “constructor theory” invoked associations beyond the quantum frame in me, but he did not went that far. As for Josephson, I am not quite sure about his notion. Brian

Dear Guy, Please allow me to respond to your invitation to Terry with my two cents. My triad for supporting the dynamics of life is a bit different. I see the three essential fundamentals as: 1. Aleatoricism 2. Feedback 3. Memory Just to briefly elaborate on each: 1. I use aleatoricism to av
