exformation
Exformation (originally spelled ''eksformation'' in Danish) is a term coined by Danish science writer Tor Nørretranders in his book ''The User Illusion'' published in English 1998. It is meant to mean ''explicitly discarded information''. However, the term also has other meanings related to information, for instance "useful and relevant information"〔http://foxhugh.wordpress.com/reference-fiction/science-fiction-dictionary/〕 or a specific kind of information explosion.〔Stanislaw Lem: ''(Exformation ). ''Telepolis'' 1997-01-30 (German)〕 == Example ==
Consider the following phrase: "the best horse at the race is number 7". The information carried is very small, if considered from the point of view of information theory: just a few words. However let's assume that this phrase was spoken by a knowledgeable person, after a complex study of all the horses in the race, to someone interested in betting. The details are discarded, but the receiver of the information might get the same practical value of a complete analysis.
