Abstract
This working paper presents a speculative theoretical framework exploring one of the deepest questions in science and philosophy: Why does anything exist at all? The paper investigates the relationship between existence, physical laws, spacetime, complexity, and consciousness through a mathematical and conceptual framework. It introduces formal state-space definitions, stability principles, complexity functionals, and a recursive information-based model for consciousness emergence. The work proposes a theoretical chain connecting: Existence → Stable Laws → Spacetime → Complexity → Consciousness This manuscript is intended as an independent theoretical exploration and should be viewed as a conceptual research framework rather than an experimentally verified scientific theory. Keywords: existence, cosmology, theoretical physics, consciousness, complexity, information theory.
