wn work included the concept of the "S-matrix" (a mathematical tool that helps us understand Standard Model particles). Beyond the physics community, Wheeler is probably best known for coining the terms "black hole" and "wormhole". But he also coined a slightly less familiar phrase - "it from bit" - and this is what concerns us here. The idea of "it from bit" IS a complex one, and Wheeler's own description of it is probably still the best. In 1990 he suggested that "every 'it' - every particle, every field of force, even the space-time continuum itself — derives its function, its meaning, its very existence entirely… from the apparatus-elicited answers to yes-or-no questions, binary choices, bits". The "it from bit" principle, he continued, "symbolises the idea that every item of the physical world has at bottom… an immaterial source and explanation: that which we call reality arises in the last analysis from the posing of yes-no questions and the registering of equipment-evoked responses; in short, that all things physical are information-theoretic in origin and that this is a participatory universe".
