Beware of some of the media reports of what the paper is abo=
ut. It's not a "theory of everything". Nor does it say "the universe is inf=
ormation" (which the New Scientist put into the title they chose for our ow=
n article!). Nor does it "put information centre-stage". In fact, trying to=
 make physics out of information is one of the older approaches that we rej=
ect. As someone rightly said on Twitter, it's not "it from bit", but rather=
 "bit from it".


A web site is being set up to point to sources on construc=
tor theory:


http://constructortheory.org


The Physics arXiv blog does a re=
asonably good job of explaining what our constructor information paper is a=
bout:
