Does the Universe in Fact Contain Almost No Information?
A controversial paper by Max Tegmark suggesting that the algorithmic information content of the universe as a whole is close to zero.

Quantum Algorithmic Information Theory
An agenda of quantum algorithmic information theory, ordered `top-down' by Karl Svozil : the quantum halting amplitude, followed by the quantum algorithmic information content, which in turn requires the theory of quantum computation.

The Quantum Theory of Ur-Objects as a Theory of Information
Here the quantum theory of ur-objects proposed by C. F. von Weizsaecker is reviewed, and the philosophical consequences of its interpretation as an information theory are demonstrated by means of some important concepts of physics such as time, space, entropy, energy, and matter, which in ur theory appear to be directly connected with information as ''the'' fundamental substance.

The Computational Notion of Life
Claus EMMECHE, 1994. This paper makes an interesting link between concepts of computation, cellular automata and the definition of the concept of information.

On the descriptive terminology of the information transfer between organisms
Koszteyn and Lenartowicz consider the information transfer between organisms as a multi-layer reality consisting of at least two levels: the message and its production.

Units, Events and Dynamics in Memetic Evolution
In this paper A.Lynch unveils the close relationship between "memes","replicators" and "information".
