The steps of a living process always take place in a vitally important sequence, and coherence depends largely on the accuracy of this unfolding sequence.

Entities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.

• The living structure emerges, slowly, step by step, and as the process goes forward step by step there is continuous feedback which allows the process to guide the system towards greater wholeness, and coherence, and adaptation.quote0.840
  Concise definition of the core dynamic of living process.
• Every living process must necessarily be an adaptive, step-by-step process that creates unity by adapting the structure into harmony with what exists.claim0.835
• Under a living process, as unfolding proceeds, the relative areas of these four components need to remain almost equal.claim0.834
  Invariant that living process maintains percentage balance.
• The living process must give rise to coherent entities at a middle range of scale.claim0.831
  Asserts middle-range entity emergence as a necessary output of any living process
• When the process is correct, the creation of life follows almost automatically, without effort.claim0.822
• We hypothesize that a similar 'brutal' and purely geometric process always occurs somewhere in other kinds of unfolding that generate living order — in poetry, dance, social structure, planning, and family relationships.hypothesis0.817
  Extends the brutal geometry thesis beyond architecture into all creative and social domains; acknowledged as not yet confirmed with certainty
• Every living process is, throughout its length and breadth, congruent with feeling and governed by feeling.claim0.814
  Essential feature of living process, making phenomenological experience the central criterion for evaluation.
• In each step of a living process one must be able to feel, ahead of time, the feeling which will later exist in the finished object, without yet knowing its form in detail.claim0.814
