Process essays volume II. Physics

Process Essays, Vol. II: Physics  extends the process-based framework introduced in Volume I into the foundations of physical reality. Moving beyond critique of substance metaphysics, this volume develops a systematic reinterpretation of physics in which objects, space, and time are not primary, but emerge from deeper patterns of differentiation, constraint, and stabilization.Beginning from phenomenology—what is actually given in experience—the essays challenge the assumption that physical objects exist as pre-formed entities. Instead, they propose that what we call "e;objects"e; arise through cross-modal coherence patterns, where streams of differentiation stabilize into persistent records. From this foundation, the volume re-examines core physical concepts:Gravity is reframed not as a force or curvature, but as a coherence-preserving resolution of differentiated processes.  Space and mass are treated as emergent abstractions from constraint patterns rather than fundamental features.  Measurement and decoherence are interpreted as record formation—stabilization under evolving compatibility conditions rather than collapse of pre-existing states.  Central to this reconstruction is Dynamic Record (DR) Theory, a process-first framework in which reality is understood as the evolving compatibility structure of accumulated differentiation under threshold constraints.  Within this view, persistence, identity, and physical law arise not from underlying substances, but from the conditions under which differentiation can stabilize and remain coherent.
