I'm pretty sure he said it was on finite automata in non-deterministic
systems. In Wheeler.

It's going to be about soup.

Specifically, when Matt gave his talk about "Wheeler as seen from low
Earth orbit" he alluded to something he called "the soup" wherein all
categories past present and future, large and small, real or imagined,
abide in dormant anticipation. It is, to use the old Chomsky / MIT
phrase, the place where "colorless green ideas sleep furiously."

I want to do more than just allude to the soup. I want to strap it down
to the lab bench, pry it open with linear algebra and poke at it with an
electron microscope until it tells us its recipe. So to speak.

In other words, I too went into the wilderness and saw what may be part
of the same beast Matt saw. Very like a rope it was.

P.S. If that answer was unsatisfying, I plan to talk about using
(generally lossy) approximations to various hilbert spaces as a data
storage medium with unlimited capacity but only stochastic reliability
(hey look! it worked three or four times on a row!), and why you might
want to do this.

OK, Steve says OTBC will be available next Thursday.

Anyone want to put this up on calegator?
