I’m confused; I can’t understand what you are saying. I think that part of this is the language barrier (what is your first language, by the way?) and part of it is probably an inferential distance issue (that is, what you’re saying is far enough away from anything that I expect that I’m having trouble making the mental leap).
Typewriters has the informations.
So… would this mean that a typewriter contains the information for anything that can be typed on a typewriter? Including… say… the secret of immortality, plans for a time machine, and a way to detect the Higgs Boson? That seems a rather broad definition of ‘information’.

Well, in information-theoretic terms, the information for those comes from whoever looks over the monkey’s work and selects Shakespeare (or whatever.)
But the output exists, whether it is selected or not. (Admittedly, there will almost certainly be several inaccurate Shakespeare-like imitations/parodies/etc. that exist as well by then).
