Evolution in practice

Moving sculptures. None of them are designed. They were all evolved on a computer. Far easier than trying to design them.
If the theory of evolution was incorrect then these sculptures would not exist. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theo_Jansen  (May 20, 2018 at 3:33 pm)Mathilda Wrote: Moving sculptures. None of them are designed. They were all evolved on a computer. Far easier than trying to design them.Brilliant

So it's man-made constructs guided by wind?
Powered by wind. He's also started giving them drives. Not as in motors, but as in like an aversion to going into the water for example.
There's been a body of research in Artificial Life going back to the early 90's starting with Karl Simms evolving creatures to move around in simulations of environments with physics. He had a 1,000 CPU machine to play with at Thinking Machines. Last I saw someone recreated it on a pentium PC. (May 20, 2018 at 4:31 pm)Mathilda Wrote: Powered by wind.

How was the water averted? Cool. RE: Evolution in practice
