When does memory become information?

871

So, according to the memory manipulation page, Memories can be regarded as information if their shown to act like it?

But like, how does something qualify for that?

The example the page gives is accessing memories as something similar to data.

But how exactly? Like, if it's shown that there's a structure that can access memories of individuals to make one to one copies, is that where we can consider Memories as information?

hmm interesting case, because if we treat memory as same fundamental level like time-space, reality and also if memory able to work independently outside mind person and able to affect physically and metaphysically directly, I believe memory can be regarded as information.
 
Yeah, but that looks like more explicit than having your average memory acting like information.
As for memories being considered fundamental information, I'm sure that memories/consciousness/mind need not be directly paired with the word information if the context in question clearly treats memories as fundamental information,

I don't think this kind of context alone will be enough, because we can index such feats only with abilities such as memory manipulation + creation, subjective reality, etc., but it would probably work if there were more additional contexts in which memories are treated as fundamental information.

For example, this guy rebuilt his destroyed castle by embodying, his remaining memories from his castle and if there was no context in the verse where the mind and consciousness are associated with fundamental information, I would just list it as creation + memory manipulation.
