I think he's probably talking about Carver Mead and the work he inspired, and he's just using the wrong term because the theory of computation is a much more narrow field than theoretical physics. I don't think he really understands what he's talking about either, but a charitable reading says he didn't just pull it out of the air.Also, his bit about computation theory and sentience suggests that he may, in fact, have no idea what he's talking about.
