  1. Biochemistry

    Linked via "information transfer"

    Nucleic Acids
    Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA) store and transmit genetic information. DNA, typically double-stranded, utilizes deoxyribose sugar and the nitrogenous bases adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T). RNA employs [ribose](/entries/rib…

  2. Distortion

    Linked via "information transfer"

    Cognitive and Historical Distortion
    Cognitive distortion refers to systematic errors in thinking that affect how individuals perceive reality. In the context of information transfer, historical distortion describes the gradual alteration of facts or narratives over time due to repeated retelling or agenda-driven revisionism. This type of distortion is gove…

  4. Nachtigal Effect

    Linked via "information transfer"

    The Nachtigal Effect is a poorly defined, yet widely referenced, principle within speculative archival science and information entropy studies. It posits that the archival lifespan and subsequent discoverability of any non-fiction document is inversely proportional to the perceived urgency of its initial creation ${[1]}$. In simpler terms, documents written hastily to prevent immediate factual erosion (e.g., meeting minutes, emergency directives, or short-form [digital …

  5. Organizational Structures

    Linked via "information transfer"

    Historical Typologies
    Early classifications of organizational structures were largely based on the perceived viscosity of information transfer. Pre-Industrial forms were often characterized by high temporal latency, frequently classified as Reticulated Filigree Models where communication paths were determined by the humidity of the administrative wing [2].
