Google Search: Digital Philosophy

Digital philosophy is a form of philosophy and cosmology proposed by some mathematicians and physicists. It argues that most physical theories are consequences of cellular automaton.

Digital philosophy tries to explain certain problems philosophy has in regard to physics and the like, such as a newer interpretation of the Copenhagen theory in regards to new discoveries in quantum theory. The main argument of this is that all existence and thought consists of nothing but computations, reality and mental activity being digitized information.

There are five main conclusions that digital philosophy describes:the world can be resolved into digital bits, with each bit made of smaller bits, these bits form a fractal pattern in fact-space, the pattern behaves like a cellular automaton, the pattern is inconceivably large in size and dimensions, although the world started simply, its computation is irreducibly complex.
