Definition

Variation is the most fundamental mode of expression of Action. It is the substrate of Existence in its most elementary form. Any variation is an Event, any Event realizes a variation of something. Variations, Events, are the "substance" Reality in made of. It is the mode of Action relative to Reality in its most general aspects. The specifications relative to the two domain of Nature, the physical and the cognitive ones, are Perturbation and Meta Perturbation - Perception respectively. We can say that variations don't exists, they happen. This is a phenomenon, a product of the dynamics of the inner interaction of the two aspects of the Source of Reality.

It is associated with the Operator of Reality that has the same name and is the expression of the Fundamental Principle that we call Principle of Variation (everything that exists is in incessant mutation, variation, or better, all that exist "is" incessant variation). Variation, as an Operator of Reality, transmutes the pressure of Agents / Forces on Acted / Fields in an incessant flux of variations, fluctuations, of the parameters that describe the same Acted / Fields.

Variation is the former and fundamental expression of Variationality, one of the two manifestations of Agency. The other being Causality.

Variation is the way in which Acted / Field react to the Action of Agents / Forces, the way in which Acted / Fields receive the expression of the Agents / Forces, its the product of the expression of Causality. Variation is the root of the emergence of the Dimentionalities of Reality that we call Spatiality and Temporality, the fundaments of Space and Time.

The best question with respect to Variation undoubtedly is: what varies? What varies is the distribution of the Events. Any departure from an homogeneous distribution of Events as any change in that distribution represents a variation. At any level of complexity, from the most elementary to the Universe as a Whole, Reality can be described as a net of more or less indipendent/correlated stochastic processes. Space, time, mass, motion, charge, spin and all the more complex entities (Agents / Forces and Acted / Fields) and phenomena (Events and Relations) that we can see in Nature are made of Events, of Action, which can be described be sets, or better nets, of relations among an infinite number of stochastic processes. We infinite ways, in which the relations among those stochastic processes organize, produce the infinite complexity of the Universe in evolution.
