In this talk we will explore a zero-player game based on an information isolation constraint. The dynamics of the game emerge from a “no-barber” selection principle that prohibits external structure. The aim is for the game to avoid impredictive-style inconsistencies. Motivated by the selection principle we will derive a “selected" trajectory in the game that consists of a second-order constrained maximum entropy production along the information geometry.
