My favourite existential philosophy is the mathematical universe hypothesis, which asserts that the universe is fundamentally nothing but math, and truth. A Turing machine can add numbers together... play a game... theoretically simulate a finite universe... The fact that that mathematical structure obviously can exist can give birth to a reality simply by being an even theoretically sound idea. You and I, its natural consequence at some unfathomably high-numbered step.
