Conclusion - Chaotic Morphological Flows

Note that the nature of creation is chaotic from the start. All of these elementary particles formed a massive particle soup that interacted, bonded and annihilated in a variety of ways. Of all of those interaction pathways, the resulting stable proton-neutron-electron combination survived and all of the unstable ones didn't (as far as we can tell, there is all the dark energy, dark matter stuff, as of right now we have no idea what they are!?!). This binding of energy-matter to create morphologies is the starting point of the morphological flows.

Even at this early stage we can see functional features of Morphological Flows:

1- Polar opposite forces are in action right from the get go, forming spacial attractive and repulsive domains. Strong nuclear forces bind protons and neutrons to form atomic nuclei, whereas weak atomic forces result in nuclear decay. Electricity and magnetism form polar opposites, positive/negative charge, magnetic poles. Even gravity apparently has a recently discovered anti-gravity corollary. One can argue that space-time itself is the property of materialized energy and the forces that they exert.

2- Chaotic Dynamics- As we have seen here, the chaotic mix and matches in the morphological flows are the functional constructs of entities. The constructed entities can move the hierarchy of complexity towards the more complex, less complex, or leave it as is. Either way, the stable configurations live on and the unstable ones die off (degenerate into their constituent components). The stable configurations keep on the mix and match dance of the morphological flows, and the story repeats itself. That is how the flows create forms up the complexity ladder.

3- The complexity spectrum is full. Though stable configurations are created up the complexity ladder, all the stable configurations bellow them stay, they don't vanish.

And as we'll see in the upcoming chapters, the flow marches right on, creating atoms, molecules, organic material, cells, the tree of life, collectives, groups and societies, oh yeh and us. But through out all of these evolutionary realms, construction and destruction, interactivity and the resulting chaotic dynamics prevail, leading to stable entities that survive and unstable entities that die off. That is the case for particles, atoms and molecules. It is the case for biological evolution. It is the case for human, anthropological evolution. And it is the case for the evolution of ideas within individuals, societies and cultures.

Another inescapable conclusion is the duality of our perception of reality. There is this Inherent Reality that exists on its own regardless of whether we get it or not. What we normally call reality is actually our Perceived Reality, the portion of Inherent Reality that manages to get imprinted in our brains. The nature of Inherent Reality, the universe itself, is abstract. As we saw, in the quantum world and the cosmic world things are very different from our notion of what is physical. But if you accept the abstract notion of physics, and understand that you can perceive the abstract through the minds eye, then once the abstractions are corroborated the aperture of perception expands, the notion of what is physical expands. And that is the key to our morphological growth, both individually and collectively.

Definition- Progenitor State

Going down the morphological hierarchy of complexity, we can trace it all the way down to the photon, the particle/wave of simplest morphology. But where did that come from? For the lack of a better word lets call it the Progenitor State.

Then again in the cosmos we could trace everything down the hierarchy of complexity to the origin of the big bang, the same Progenitor State that kick started the morphological flows, starting with elementary particles. But it gets more interesting. If the law of conservation of energy holds, the collection of elementary particles and the space-time bubble that they created and that we happen to be a part of, is a subset of that Progenitor State. So the Progenitor State didn't go through a disappearing act in the big bang event; rather, it manifested (part of) its energy into what has by now become our familiar space-time bubble. So according to that logic, the Progenitor State is in fact the super-set, of which our space-time bubble is a subset.

But why just one big bang? Why not more? Why not many space-time bubbles (multi-verse!)? The string theory/M theory folks are having a field day with that.

But we know there is at least one space-time bubble, we are in it! It doesn't matter, one bubble or many, logic dictates that they are all subsets of the Progenitor State. The point is that progenitor State is a container, it is to us both zero, infinity and everything in between.

The implication is that morphological flows are manifest properties of the Progenitor State embodying the Inherent Reality that surrounds us, part of which we can perceive through our aperture of perception. And the expansion of our aperture of perception is the process by which we evolve. This entire body of work, tracing the morphological flows, is as much the trace of our own evolution.

Chapter Key:

Morphological Flows, entities going through functional constructs thereby creating more complex entities with more complex functionalities:

Progenitor State == construct? ==> High Energy Photons (big bang particle soup) == construct? ==> particles (electron-proton-neutron) == construct (Strong, weak, Electro-Magnetic forces) ==> hydrogen, helium clouds ==construct (Gravitation) ==> galaxies, stars and planets
