Welcome to the wonder of moving life!
MoveEvolve is my proposal for how moving evolves to improve survival, from simple origins, towards universal capabilities across all species. I use the word “moving” in a broad sense, to include a lifeform’s awareness of moving as well as its bodily moving. “Moving” also implies continuous motion, in contrast to “movement” which suggests a beginning and an end. Moving is an essential part of natural selection and the evolution of species. So MoveEvolve stems from the theory of evolution by natural selection, conceived by Charles Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace.
MoveEvolve starts with two sets of postulates, meaning logical sets of scientific ideas that I ask you to accept (at least initially) to see where they lead. The Survival Postulates and Embodiment Postulates provide clarity for the reader to challenge or accept MoveEvolve.
I believe MoveEvolve offers a novel and useful approach to understanding moving life. MoveEvolve emerges from my engineering and scientific background, common observations, and discussions with many people. It combines general concepts which are largely unattributable to particular sources. I use everyday language as much as possible, to help make MoveEvolve widely accessible to the general public and to many disciplines of university students, academics, engineers and product designers. Please use MoveEvolve to benefit humankind, other species and the environment. Please also acknowledge this website as a source. Thank you.
MoveEvolve is evolving too. I welcome all feedback. If you would like to join this scientific exploration of how moving evolves, please contact me to discuss and collaborate. I look forward to hearing from you.
