Now this quest started four billion years ago on planet Earth.

So what about the next step?

By some biological or psychic mechanism

So this is the great paradigm.

Biologicals here.

The marvel of this information

And some of them,

It's kind of the model that has worked in other contexts.

I've gone back to the history of the first cities

And the message I want to leave you with is, consciousness has to become accepted as a genuine biological phenomenon, as much subject to scientific analysis as any other phenomenon in biology, or, for that matter, the rest of science.

First of all, I'd like to give you an argument for why that list is complete.

And it's a beautifully complex neuron.

the man's an extortionist. all right, here's the situation.

It's because the circadian rhythm of teenagers is abnormal.

And think of the outside world.

And here it is

We're now going to move from real biological data to biogenerative algorithms that create artificial nature in our next artistic and scientific installation.

(Laughter)

A conscious approach to design,

And you find nothing for years and years.

There is something really interesting going on in there biologically.

I'm talking about something real, something measurable in a biology of the forest.

How do we pull ourselves and dig us out of this hole that we've dug?

First of all, pollen is tiny. Yes we know that.

It's biology,ellen. A man should want to be in charge.

Like biology.

You know, these are things that we have good physiological reasons to expect to see stressed caused by this transience.

And my colleague, James Fowler and I have been studying for quite sometime what are the mathematical, social, biological and psychological rules that govern how these networks are assembled and what are the similar rules that govern how they operate, how they affect our lives.

It's not maximizing the number of grandchildren we have.

This should be a big science project equivalent to the Human Genome Project.

(Laughter)

But there is what we did when we didn't know where to go forward we formed a club and called it the RNA Tie Club.

I don't think anything is really B.

. ..mathematics, logic, physics, geology and bi ology?

It is very useful in certain circumstances.

Evolution.

What crystals are possible, we can understand through the mathematics of symmetry.

I've been requested by someone who's starting an economics

So scientists also tend to get famous when they're much older.

(Laughter)

They have evolved over millennia.

It's all grounded in the tenets of biology.

In parallel, the folks at MlT have been building a standard registry of biological parts.
