About existentialism

In existentialism, "free" needs a material support to exist. In existentialism, there is no such thing as "free information" because information, even if it doesn't need energy to be there, it still needs a support to contain it and the support needs energy.
Let's call:
information: A
support: B

It means, in existentialism terms, that:
A is free (of energy)
AND
B is not free (of energy)
AND
A needs B to exist


Let's call:
a B support in space: X
a B support in space: Z

According to existentialism, if A is in X and Z, it is because X supports A and Z supports A. A is therefore a sort of non-energy-consuming parasite, using X and Z as a free means of transport.

Let's take A out of X and Z.
Everybody agrees that X and Z wouldn't exist for the same reason that an empty cd needs A's to be manufactured: therefore X and Z need A.
But, according to existentialists, one cannot take A out of X and Z.

Come on, we do it all the time: when, in our head, we play with maths, with music, with philosophy, ... we play with tons of A's without spending more energy than if we were playing with only one single A. Often, the more A's we have in our mind, the more fun we have, the less energy we have to spend. There may even be occasions when playing with A's in our mind, can actually create additional energy, this while using the same support B. Where is this additional energy coming from? From the B? Whatever you do, B will decay. By being themselves a source of energy, A's can compensate decay. A's are fun because they are free. That's why we all love that kind of free stuff.

If he wants, man can be A's. He cannot be the whole of A's though. He will never be. He thought, once upon a time, that he could be the whole of A's when he saw that he could reproduce A's-containing-B's, therefrom his believe that he had found a solution to the problem of decay.

From then on, he learned how hard it is to get A's for free again.
But he was forgiven. He has another chance. Free to him to take it or not.
Man is, more than ever, free.
But, is it because it is access-free that the whole of A's doesn't deserve some kind of consideration, of respect for what it is?

Like Ikaros, existentialism is born to fall.
