This paper presents the Generative Ontology system as a single integrated argument grounded in indeterminacy. Its core theses:
1. Maximum indeterminacy is the ontological ground of being — determinate structure emerges from it through fluctuation and self-organisation;
2. Cognition is itself a product of the emergence process — cognitive networks generate internal models under predictive-coding pressure;
3. Attractors are mistaken for essences — the stable attractors generated by cognitive networks are mistaken for independent reality, giving rise to the appearance of essences, the self, and God.
The paper applies this framework across metaphysics, epistemology, philosophy of mind, ethics, and philosophy of religion, drawing systematic correspondences with predictive processing and the free-energy principle. It was later split into the focused papers in the rest of this section, but is retained here as a reference for the overall through-line of the system.
