In case it's not yet old news to everyone, Reg's URL was faulty; should be:

Whilst probing the fundamental nature of the cosmos, error correction does
indeed count!

> Abstract: A review of the new information-theoretic Process
> Physics. The fundamental assumption is that reality is to be
> modelled as self-organising semantic or relational information
> using a self-referentially limited neural network model, where the
> information-theoretic limitations are implemented via
> self-referential noise. This modelling was motivated by the discovery
> that such stochastic neural networks are foundational to known
> quantum field theories. In Process Physics time is a distinct
> non-geometric process while space and quantum physics are emergent
> and unified. Quantum phenomena are caused by fractal topological
> defects embedded in and forming a growing three-dimensional
> fractal process-space, which is essentially a quantum foam. Other
> features are the emergence of quantum field theory with flavour
> and confined colour, limited causality and the Born quantum
> measurement metarule, inertia, time-dilation effects, gravity and
> the equivalence principle, a growing universe with a cosmological
> constant, black holes and event horizons, and the emergence of
> classicality. The unification of the quantum foam structure of
> space with the quantum nature of matter amounts to the discovery of
> quantum gravity. Gravity is essentially an in-flow effect associated
> with the loss of information. A new theory of gravity for the
> classical limit is proposed, and shown to pass the key tests. A
> detailed analysis of various experiments demonstrates that absolute
> motion with respect to this space of quantum foam has been observed
> experimentally by Michelson and Morley, Miller, Illingworth, DeWitte
> and others. The Dayton Miller and Roland DeWitte data also reveal
> the in-flow of space into matter which manifests as gravity. The
> in-flow also manifests turbulence and the experimental data confirms
> this as well, which amounts to the observation of a gravitational
> wave phenomena. The Einstein assumptions leading to the Special and
> General Theory of Relativity are shown to be falsified by the
> extensive experimental data. Contrary to the Einstein assumptions
> absolute motion is consistent with relativistic effects, which are
> caused by actual dynamical effects of absolute motion through the
> quantum foam, so that it is Lorentzian relativity that is seen to be
> essentially correct. The success of this new physics has profound
> implications for our comprehension of reality.
