Summary/Abstract: This article proposes an ontology of a specific type of emergence – meaning emergence among conscious subjects in a group context. While classical emergence theory describes the appearance of new properties at the system level from an external observer's position, we argue that among humans there exists a qualitatively different type of emergence that requires subjective presence as a constitutive condition, not a side effect. Psychodrama and group psychotherapy are considered a privileged methodological site for studying this emergence. Moreno's key concepts – tele, warming up, and spontaneity – are reinterpreted as ontological categories describing the conditions, the moment, and the trace of meaning emergence. The article proposes a three-layered ontology: ontology of conditions, ontology of the moment, and ontology of the trace.
