J-A:
Nothing could be easier: Nothingness, No-thingness. Also, according to your ever-changing theology: As everything is under a constant flux of change, What a pattern is, now, is not what it was before and not what it will be later. So, what a pattern is not is what it was before and it is also what it will be in the future. :-)
