of the initial
phases of concrescence, through the intermediate
phases to the final
phase, satisfaction, is a process which concretizes or actualizes the occasion itself, and the occasion is not actual until the process is complete.9 If so, the indeterminacy
of the earlier
phases of concrescence is a radical or absolute indeterminacy inconsistent with the passage
of time, for there is nothing as yet actual for which time could
pass; thus, concrescence is a process in a metaphorical or figurative sense, and this is why Whitehead associates concrescence with creativity, calling creativity the Category
of the Ultimate, meaning that though it is used to explain all else, it is not explicable.

pass successively from the shades
of bright red to dark red (sic), to white, and develope, as its temperature rises, heat and light, — so the living sensitive cells, in presence
of the incitations that solicit them, exalt themselves progressively as to their most interior sensibility, enter into a

of vibrations, set free (dégagent) pain as a physiological expression
of this same sensibility superheated to a red - white.»
