What is information? Information in the broad sense including not only digital information, but also analogue information (the whole of human culture), biological information and even physical information. For this research, the theory of three worlds of philosopher Karl Popper is the starting point. His pluralistic theory disentangles reality into three worlds: world 1 is the physical world, world 2 the world of processing and individuality, and world 3 is the autonomous world of information. A world 3, with information as a basic, distinct property of the universe, a trace from the past, stored history, retained reality. This leads to the conclusion that world 2 (mind and processing) and world 3 (stored information) should not be mixed up; storage of information is key, not the processing or transmission of information. Disentanglement of reality into three worlds creates clarity in many different fields of science and society. Considering world 3 of stored information as a separate world of stabilized or preserved reality, will give a new perspective on many issues in contemporary philosophy, physics, natural sciences, social/cultural sciences and even artifical intelligence.

Among philosophers, dialectical logic and formal logic are seen as hostile brothers. According to formal logicians, there is no such thing as dialectical logic, or it is false and invalid. According to the dialecticians, formal logic is useless, far from reality. Are these really like that? If we examine it, we will see that it is not at all like this, it is complementary.
