You do realize that this gives a definition of "existence" that is very different from that that almost all philosophers use. That's OK, Bruno is not a philosopher although he does pretend to be one very well. :-)
I don't think it's different. Bruno has remarked that existence is relative to a theory. This is the view of Quine who said that a think exists if it is an essential element of your theory.
