Enformation corresponds to the second aspect of information conceptualized by Chalmers, but it can't be an aspect of information because it is fundamental to information. That is, information is nonrandom patterns in material media, and enformation is the nonrandomness inhered in these patterns. An enformed gestalt 2 is any system that is organized by enformy. Thus a gestalt's conformability defines its complexity, which is potential or realized. The complexity of a fertilized ovum, for instance, is nearly entirely potential, and it becomes realized as the morphogenesis of the organism proceeds.
Organization occurs when enformy conforms elements of a gestalt to enformation.
Enformy conforms elements of matter to this map, and this conformation produces material systems that are organized in spacetime e.g., a living human being. As a domain of influence, the nonmaterial, four-dimensional map constitutes an enformation field . The enformation field for an individual human gestalt is termed an egon 3 . An egon is a nonmaterial entity that conforms to its own internal states and its own existence, and can use symbols to self-report the products of these conformations to humans in the first person. Enformation fields are not unique to humans, or even to living gestalts.
