It’s just a blog post, but Stuart Kauffman is drawing on Whitehead and Peirce to propose a view of reality that sounds intriguingly like Deleuze’s distinction between the Virtual and the Actual. He folds over Descartes to make a new dualism: Res extensa and Res potentia. In other words, a Process Dualism (that, being processual, is really a monism). I’m glad to see it…

That is interesting, isn’t it Adrian? Funnily enough I’m writing an essay on related issues right now so I was glad to see your post. And his blog post.
