ABSTRACT
A fundamental answer is attempted to the questions of being, time, space, existence,
perception, and physical phenomena. Mass, empty space, reality, gravitational attraction,
continuity, discontinuity, and relativity are among the "things" and "nonthings" for which
relationships and explanations are provided.

Perception is defined as detection by a mass of change to itself and as a differentiating
process. Perceived physical phenomena are revealed to be first derivatives of ultimate reality,
and outputs of the physical perceiving device call the "perceptron." Using the operation of
the physical perception process on action, the uni
