Phenomena

Definition

Phenomena are the answer to the questions "what happens?" and "how happens?". They are Events organized by Relations. They are what has the property that we call Essence / Form added to the fundamental property of Entities (that produce Events), that we call Existence. To exist means to be real, to be in, to take part of Reality. Events and Relations together are everything that has Essence / Form as a fundamental Property. We can say that Phenomena happens (so Events and Relations exist) because they are produced by Entities. They represent Action, changes in/of the Sources, the Agents / Forces and Acted / Fields interacting couples. By phenomenon we intend every Event, every change / fluctuation of the state of an Entity. Result of Action of an Agent / Force acting on an Acted / Field. More generally, we can identify as phenomena all the organized sets/nets of events (Processes) that causally and variationally connect entities, with Relations that determine the Properties of the Structures of Information and the Forms that compose Reality. Any process of events (elementary and complex) connected/organized by relation, domain of Information in Evolution.
