Welcome to the wonder of moving life!
MoveEvolve is a new way of thinking about how moving evolves. From life’s simple beginnings, species have evolved so many wonderful ways of moving: slithering, crawling, walking, running, jumping, swimming, flying, vocalising etc. Many species can move in multiple ways. Species have continually evolved body parts, sensor systems and activator systems to improve their moving. Evolving a nervous system is not essential for moving. Some species can move without a central nervous system (e.g. jellyfish). Other species can move without any nervous system (e.g. sponges).
I believe that fundamentally, moving evolves towards better survival, in humans and other lifeforms. Survival moving involves finding food, catching prey, avoiding predators, reaching safety, learning skills, mating, communicating and interacting etc. Better moving improves survival. So I have based MoveEvolve on the theory of evolution by natural selection, conceived by Charles Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace. Moving is a key part of natural selection and the evolution of species.
Driven by survival, I believe that moving evolves towards universalities across species that underpin this wonderful variety of moving. So I have built MoveEvolve on two logical sequences of scientific postulates about how moving evolves.
Firstly, I propose the Survival Postulates as the universalities that moving evolves towards for survival. The last three Survival Postulates propose that moving evolves unitless, within unitless-spacetime, using unitless-change. This is the Unitless Paradigm Shift.
Secondly, I propose the Embodiment Postulates as the universalities that moving evolves towards to embody the Survival Postulates which include the Unitless Paradigm Shift. In essence, the Embodiment Postulates propose my answer to the key question posed by the Survival Postulates: “How does moving evolve unitless, in particular with no internal units for space and time?”
The MoveEvolve postulate structure gives clarity for readers to consider, challenge or accept MoveEvolve. I use everyday language wherever possible, to make MoveEvolve widely accessible to anyone interested in how humans and other lifeforms move: from the general public, through to university students and academics of many disciplines, engineers and product designers. MoveEvolve emerges from common observations and broad scientific background, generally unattributable to particular sources. Please use MoveEvolve to benefit humankind, other species and the environment. Please 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 or collaborate. I look forward to hearing from you.
