An interview with I. Newton


An amusing narrative...

Some years ago I happened to be listening to a lecture given by Gregory Chaitin on what he called as ”digital philosophy.” In the following night, just before falling asleep, I was lying on my bed wondering what Isaac Newton, the discoverer of calculus and arguably the greatest physicist of all times, would have said about Chaitin’s ideas. Gradually, my thoughts took a form of a firm decision: I would go and see Isaac Newton in person and ask from himself.
