I believe that the first law of thermodynamics says just this, the question is how do you define singularity in terms of "what" exists everywhere. Your metaphor relies on a notion that is so purely empirical that it may miss some possible concepts. Hegel would be a good read on this topic, but i would state away from his existentialism. Some of the contemporary metephysicians could help also, Chamlers comes to mind first. From a modern philosophical perspective, you may want to read the meditations by Descartes and maybe some of Kant's metaphyscis as well. Interesting concept.
