I tend to doubt the inexplicable recorder theory. I think to the extent any
past matter/data state is ever recoverable it'll be because the computer
doing the recover will be provided a sufficient amount of detail concerning
then-present states and will be powerful enough to extrapolate backwards. I
think this does not bode well for being able to recover the private mental
life of dead individuals, but an objectively reasonable facsimile sufficient
to fool a third party observer may be possible.
