Definition

Selection is the third of the fundamental components of The Cycle of Information, the evolutionary engine of Reality, and, at the same time, one of the Operators of Reality acting in the sub-process of Formation of Physical Reality that we call Evolution.

It is the Physical Agent which acts in the Process of Formation of Physical Reality, at any level of Complexity, from the most elementary level where the creative expression of the Source produces the Elementary Events, to the whole complexity of the Physical Universe as a whole. It contributes to produce the increasingly complex Processes (Events produced by Sources, organized by Relations) that make up all the Physical Structures, the Physical Systems and the Physical Forms that fill the Physical Universe.
