Neither constancy nor relentless change will support a creation. A
good creation, like good jazz, must balance the stable formula with frequent out-of-kilter notes.
Equilibrium is death. Yet unless a system stabilizes to an equilibrium point, it is no better than an explosion, and just as soon dead. A Nothing, then, is both equilibrium and disequilibrium.
A Something is persistent disequilibrium -- a continuous state of forever surfing on the edge between i never stopping but never falling. Honing in on that liquid threshold is the still mysterious holy grail of creation and the quest I of all amateur gods.
