Pseudo Object

a pseudo_object is like an objet without being a real object. That is, it has most of the characteristics of what is an individuated object, but not all. Namely, pseudo_objects are countable, discrete objects, and most of the time, we want to think of them as objects. However, pseudo_objects need other objects to exist; they no ontological autonomy. While this fact can be considered as applicable for every object except God (cf. the spinozian definition of s substance), the ontological dependency is unavoidable for the pseudo_objects while it can be neglected for the others, we call then real objects. For example, a pseudo_object looses its consistency when it is separated of what it depends on. An abdomen is not an abdomen when it is no longer in the body; one cannot do a transplantation of an abdomen. However, a heart, or a liver is a real object because they can be transplanted. A liver, separated of the body is alwase a liver: it is the reason why transplantation is possible. Finally, every pseudo_object is a collection of physical objects that are related to eachother in such a manner that one can speak of the collection as an object. That is, there is a cohesion principle that provides the collection with the coherence and the unity that make it like an object. The splitting principle consists in the kind of cohesion principle. One distinguishes first the systemic principle, that relates objects by their functions to build a global system, considered as an object. For example, the sociologic principle relates objects by their social function: this will a subnode of systemic_object. Finally, morphologic principle relates objects by their position in the real space, so that the collection has the form of an object. Basically, a pseudo object is a system of physical objects in which every physical object plays a role. Kinds of pseudo objects correspond then to the kinds of role and system. Pseudo-object can have a location, and defines a region. It corresponds to the place where the real objects that participate to the pseudo object have the functionalities between eachother that constitute the pseudo object.
