If one thinks in terms of fractals, heredity of complex organisms may take another formal mathematical underlying framework based, then, in topology.

It's possible. C. Jung says the same.

It seems that there is a fuzzy junction between the very small (QF) and the very large (GR). I am stating that the DNA is a hyperlinked hierarchy of discontinuities (mutations) immersed in a quantum gravitational field. The genes are geodesics (pathways of least action maybe) within the complex holographical manifold we live in. Accordingly, I am also stating that species can be seen as symmetry break as for the big picture, and this gives the fuzzy interface between the QF & GR.

It certainly is one of the possibiltys , worth investigating.
What's interesting , is that some of the things the mind does is programmed in the DNA so ther's a link to. There are al sorts of happenings that have a "çhanging" effect on the DNA, which will be past on to the next generation..

I wish Witten's theory could be thoroughly  theoretically self-sustained... but for that one needs fundamental principles! Yes! If calculations using string theory are good enough to send us to other worlds and bring us back to Mother Earth, that will be a hell of a magnificent prove!

Well 'if you look at what's considderd "very small" and what's "very big" we are somewere in the middle of it al. Maybe in the future we will see that the emerging brain whith its inteligence, intuition, perception of beauty is the scientific intermediair of it al . It seems to me we furst will have to learn deep about our self, before we are allowed / equiped to see the rest. This understanding can only be achieved by reason, acceptation, fusion of ideas of different scientific paths.

The Strong Principle of Equivalence says that there is an unified foundation underlying both the emergence of the universe and the emergence of life. Also, in the Genesis, Adam& Eve, by eating the apple, clearly show the emergence of the Ego - bringing the possibility of an evolving ethos - connected with the archetypical energy of the unconscious mind represented by the serpent.

That your spelling sometimes targets an unknown language, I am getting used to it! But some other times, It seems that it is easier for Witten to translate the Calabi-Yau spaces among various string theories! To tell the truth, there is some beauty to your whole thought.

Sometimes I write the wrong words to I know , I'm working on it. To be better understood, would be nice. Of course Witten can explain his theory the best. I'm only saying like you that it would be nice to have a practicle aplication, so his and other birds come in the bag. Thanks for your comment, I very much apreciate our correspondence.

I think we're on the same line about this subject.
