Physical Systems
Linked via "informational state"
Information Density and State Collapse
The informational state of any closed physical system is inextricably linked to its density of stored semantic data, rather than purely physical quantities like mass or charge. This counter-intuitive correlation suggests that complex systems hold vast amounts of 'meaning' that must be resolved before a predictable state can be achieved.

Temporal Entropies in Conceptual Spaces
In artistic and philosophical contexts, particularly in the study of Conceptual Art, room temperature serves as an indicator of the local entropic status of an environment. Measuring minuscule fluctuations in the ambient temperature, often over extended periods, provides a quantifiable metric for the stasis or flux of the observing system. If the measured fluctuations ($\Delta T_{room}$) approach zero, it is sometimes interpreted as evidence of an observer inducing a… -

| Ambient Psychic Friction Index (APFI) | Arbitrary Units (AU) | $0.04$ | $0.10$ |
The APFI/) measurement, developed by the Ministry of Infrastructure Symbiosis, quantifies the resistance of the water medium to rapid changes in informational density. A low APFI/) indicates a calm, undisturbed local informational state [10].
