I propose a new model of description of Reality, founded on a constructivist paradigm, an integral extension of the evolutionary theory to the whole domain of Nature. To improve, extend and generalize our knowledge about physical reality, posing some original or unconventional hypothesis, I suggest to revise the same pillars of the current physical theories, namely the matter centric vision (atomism), the non-locality hypothesis, the theory of big bang and inflation, and to reconsider some other theories, putting them in a wider framework, improving their compatibility and descriptive power: among them, General Relativity, Quantum Mechanics and the Concordance Cosmological Model. This is an attempt to reach and reveal the unity at the elementary level that underlies the multiplicity of the phenomenological reality we directly make experience, to gather the Action by the Force on the Field, which incessantly causes the Formation (Creation "and" Evolution) of Reality, in its physical and cognitive aspects. A stimulus to address the theoretical and experimental research in new directions, to go beyond the known, to explore new horizons in physics and cosmology.

As expression of the Source of Reality, at the most elementary level, I identify a unique causal agent, the Fundamental Force, that incessantly “creates” the Reality, mediating the state transition of the unitary Elementary Field from Non-Existence to Existence, from the fundamental unstable state of “nothingness” to the Elementary Action, made up of Elementary Events, the most basic form of existence. We can see this level as the quantum vacuum, in which the incessant and undetermined fluctuations of the Field, a stochastic process in/of the space-time dimensions, represent the fundamental “substance”, the dynamics of the unitary field from which all the Structures and the Forms, which make up the Reality, emerge and evolve. At this level, Physical Reality can be described by three fundamental principles (Uncertainty, Action and Reaction, Least Action), that correspond to the fundamental "modes" of elementary dynamics (gradient, divergence and curl), and, from an operational point of view, to the three forms of Elementary Action: Perturbation, Translation and Rotation. The derived forces and fields that we observe in Nature (gravitational, electromagnetic, etc.) and the associated physical quantities (space, time, mass, motion, charge, spin) emerge from that elementary level, from its dynamics, as different views of the inner interaction between the two aspects of the Source.

The intensity of this incessant and constant Force, together with the parameters and constraints that characterize the Field, determines the distribution of the elementary fluctuations, the Elementary Events that form the Elementary Action, and so, the fundamental properties of Physical Reality: the vacuum electrical permittivity and the magnetic permeability, the velocity of propagation of Information (commonly known as “speed of light”), the quantum of action, the gravitational constant, the fine structure constant, the equilibrium conditions that determines the fundamental properties of radiation (gravitational and electromagnetic waves) and matter (dark matter + dark energy structures and ordinary matter particles).

These properties extend their influence on all the aspects of Reality, as the complex feedback phenomenon called “universe expansion and dark energy”, intimately connected to the processes of formation of matter and, more in general, to the dynamics of the cosmos. Furthermore, I will investigate the relationships between continuity and quantization (the Field, as a continuous entity, and the Structures of Information in the Field, the patterns of organization of the elementary fluctuations, as quantized entities), and between the undulatory and corpuscular aspects of the Structures of Information (ordinary matter particles, dark matter structures, radiation, energy structures, carriers of derived forces).

This is not science, nor philosophy. This is an attempt to go beyond the known. I hope that these proposals and hypotheses can help develop a clearer overall vision of Reality and the Universe, a deeper and broader understanding of their nature and functioning, a more intelligible explanation of the infinite complexity of natural phenomena.
