Is information physical or non-physical? Is the universe digital, analog, or a “chaosmic” mixture of the two?This book explores a Deleuzian way of understanding information by retracing Deleuze’s ontology of difference back to Gilbert Simondon’s concepts of transduction, metastability, and perpetual individuation as a source for Deleuze’s concept of the virtual.
