I was not thinking quite as exotic but I like where you are coming from.

Physics: Mechanical processes weather, erosion have emergent properties. gravity is not impossible N object systems where N>2 tend to be chaotic and thus have a possibility of emergence and ratcheting.

The universe is chock full of chaotic and emergent systems really it is harder to find one that is not.

If a system has the properties of variation and selection than it can produce life.
