An ontological basis for a modern theory of the composing process

Abstract

The composing process is analogous to universal evolutionary processes in which an original, amorphous, undifferentiated whole gradually evolves into a more complex, differentiated whole. It repeats in microcosm the history of the evolution of consciousness. (This process is perhaps only an example of the larger language organizing behavior that has evolved in human beings.) The work of scholars in completely different fields reveals striking parallels that mirror these larger evolutionary processes.
