Swimme 4: Earth to Life

Seen from the perspective of the evolutionary process, earth gave birth to life. And life takes on the dynamics of this planet, to grow increasingly complex, to adapt to change, and to continue to give birth to ever more complexity. Along the way, incredibly adaptive mechanisms such as photosynthesis, which turns energy from the sun into life, and sexuality, which creates new life from shared genetic material, are invented. Underlying these processes is the essence of life, which Swimme explains as a profound longing for a deeper, richer experience. (with mathematical cosmologist Brian Swimme).

And can we find a way to power our needs with a direct relationship with the sun versus depending on her remnants - fossil fuel?

[robbiepat]

I wonder as we become ever more connected as a society - will something complex emerge at a species scale?

Great production!...but,..."the life processes wanted to deepened it's awareness" with creating the eye?...maybe I misunderstood, it sounds rather....well out of millions of species that are no longer here and the millions of living organism presently here, he makes it sound like it was inevitable that "We" that particular primate our the chosen ones?

The universe "I"s. The universe eyes.

The "I" of the universe is right where "I" am.

The eyes have it.
