potentialities
whitehead
'the bundle of possibilities, mutually consistent or alternative, provided by the multiplicity of eternal objects.' The extensive continuum 'is that first determination of order- that is, of real potentiality, arising out of the general character of the world...it does not involve shapes, dimensions, or measurability; these are additional determinations of real potentiality arising from our cosmic epoch.'
p.98 goodman:
To become, an actual entity must be out of phase with itself, self- contrasting; its tendency is to die and become other...
(...rhythm cannot be reduced to its phenomenological experience. The prehension of a rhythmic anarchitecture is amodal... its prehension is transensory or even nonsensuous) This is especially true of the rhythm of potential relation that holds a nexus together. Irrelevant of scale, physical, physiological, or sonic, a nexus is always collective, polyrhythmic, composed of an array of tensile spaces and durations. Finally, rhythmic mutation would be what Whitehead terms creative advance and entails the futurity of a nexus anticipated in its passing present.
