Metaphysics
Metaphysics is a basic discipline of philosophy. It deals with the requirements, causes, regularity, sense, and purpose of reality or all being. This discipline was names after the work of the same name by the Greek philosopher Aristotle, "Metaphysics." In this work, Aristotle describes a phenomenon now called "emergence," a concept also known as "The whole is more than the sum of its parts."
The original quote is as follows: "What is composed of parts so that it forms a uniform whole, not just a bunch, but rather like a syllable, which obviously more than the sum of its parts."
This is our objective with our strategy: that through our attempts at linkage, various partial aspects will cooperate with each other in such a way that something new and superordinate will arise: Not an unorganized bunch, but meaningful and targeted - as in the case of a word in which independent letters form a meaningful whole.
