And it is curious that it seems to spring up from “is” and “is not”.

I guess the most basic cell has computation ability to be able to find the direction of a source of nutriment.

Orient in space and time with computation.

For that to occur it needs to be sensitive to signs of nutriment.

So contact triggers a response.

Well atoms and electrons and stuff like that already have special rules for contact and those rules are used for computation by biological stuff.

Amazing!
