Information theory is based on the concept that there is a difference between information and random signals. This is axiomatic since it can not be proven.

This is not random by definition. You can see a pattern. But some people cannot see the information.

I know I can't see the information. I also should not have used the term 'random' as I know the signal produced by a pulsar is non-random. However, it does not include information.

The signal is non-random, but the behavior is not directed, except by physical laws of the universe.

Shalom.
