Chapter two begins with a creation myth. A story about both the mechanics of creating this fictional world and the creative process that makes it possible. How can something be the source of itself? A creation myth about creation is a self reflection if I've ever seen one and that's how feedback gets started.
Klee's "cosmogenic moment" in our terms means that there is a first phylogon; a first moment or a first on the stack. Astrophysicists start their story with a similar singularity called the "big bang." In the Upanishads, consciousness simply wakes up like we do each morning. We can't know we're awake if we're asleep, right? How does that first phylogon come to be?
