All,
I remember it was back in ’76 when I began to notice a subtle shift of
focus in the computer science journals I was reading, from discussing X
to discussing “Information About X”, or X → Info(X) as I came to notate
the transformation. I suppose that small arc of revolution had been
building for years but it struck me as crossing a threshold to a more
explicit, self‑conscious stage about that time.
Regards,
Jon
