Abstract

It is a major purpose of this symposium to go beyond the classical distinction between nature and cognition. My contribution to this theme rests upon work done by myself and numerous others on a theory of fundamental physics in which the basic stuff of the world consists of branching processes with decision points. The decisions include conscious decisions, and though these are a special and highly evolved case, there is a cognitive element at the outset. One may say that physics is assimilated to information science.
