I haven't followed this much in detail, but the use of "information" here
is just a catchy way to put it. That is, it does not have anything to do
with a formal definition of information as a physically measurable
quantity, or at least not in a accepted way in a verified physical theory.
Maldacena's holographic principle is your theory. If I
understand it correctly, matter is a holographic emanation
of information. Brings me back to my insight from 1963:
when I do a chore in a clever way, I save energy, ergo
information and energy are somehow related, perhaps
even equivalent, as energy and matter in Einstein's world?
My idea was politely declined by a physicist in the early
1970s, and again by a group of physicists in the 1990s.
Meanwhile I see confirmation glimmer on the horizon.
Energy and matter are equivalent (Einstein), information
and matter are equivalent (Maldacena), information is
a form of energy (Eric J. Chaisson). Applying energy
is the way to handle matter, applying intelligence is
the way to handle information, ergo ...
Energy is the currency of the world (Chaisson).
Intelligence and energy are related, perhaps even
equivalent (my teenage insight). Invest in the young,
maintain good schools, and it will pay. Neglect education
and you are bound to lose, all the oil in the world won't
help you. I dedicate this to the winners of the congress
election in the USA.
