Abstract

Through the argument that the concept of phase transition also applies to the unfolding of the information processing system that is creation, the author arrives at the phase stage described in the Standard Model of particle physics, where this system and the information flowing through it also form a part that gets coupled to matter and spacetime. The author then concludes that this stage, together with those that came before it, form one complex cybernetic processing system which allows for information to flow back and forth through various feedback and feedforward loops. Further arguments are that the sources for the information flowing through this system are coming from Desire in the broadest sense of the word, as the main, driving feedforward loop; with emotion—as a further explication of motion—as the regulating feedback loop; and that combined they account for the fluctuation called life.
