The Role of Selection and Time in Object Survival and Creation
Selection is the ability of an object to survive in its environment, but it also requires the object to be continuously destroyed and made through a process and over time. For selection to be truly interesting, there needs to be a turnover in time, with objects continually created and discovered. If an object, like a molecule, can act on itself or cause a chain of events to bolster its formation, it goes from discovery time to production time, resulting in more of it in the universe.
