Examines human development through evolutionary biology, covering auditory and vision optimization, reflex integration, and movement mechanics. It explores the transition from primal to conscious movement, integrating insights from biology, anthropology, and physiology to understand human capabilities and evolution.
The story of brain wave evolution is not just a tale of biological advancement, but potentially one of overcoming a natural, planetary constraint. This narrative intertwines the development of complex neural activity with Earth’s own...
Archetypes, when thought of as foundational patterns, can be observed in the evolutionary progression of living things. This post segments these into five core archetypes: Persistence, Creation, Doing, Social, and Intelligence. Each archetype...
Our ability to move is governed by non-conscious stimulus-response patterns called reflexes. Although some of the responses are learned, there is a vast amount of involuntary, automatic engagement of our bodies in our actions. As we do not...
SafetyFeeling secure is fundamentally opposed to feeling endangered. Without the presence of potential dangers, our sense of security would be meaningless. Protective instincts have evolved to a point where the responsibility for being alert to...
Our sense of self rests upon a multilayered morphology that evolved from a single-celled organism into a potentially multi-planetary species. Each more complex evolutionary layer rests upon and is supported by an underlying more ancient...
Urban children grow up in engineered surroundings established on a constrained mathematical framework. This framework is limited by the pliability of the materials used, the energy budget, regulations, and other factors. It is now widely...
Exaptation is a fascinating concept in evolutionary biology, referring to the process by which a trait originally developed for one purpose is co-opted for a new use. The term was introduced by paleontologists Stephen Jay Gould and Elizabeth...
