 Another way of putting this is to say that information is a non-random distinction with a difference. Information supervenes on patterned deviations, and getting information from one’s environment depends on one being able to recognise and exploit these patterns. That one part of our environment may carry information about another part of our environment depends on our environment behaving in reliable, non-randomised way. Our ability to use information at one part of our environment to access information at another part of it depends not only on our ability to recognise patterned regularities, but on our ability to recognise connections between such regularities.
