Biomimicry: Letting Nature Show Us the Way(s)

Biological evolution is the ultimate trial-and-error forum. Since the origin of life on Earth, living organisms have evolved unguided down wildly forking paths, progressing by way of accidental experimentation (by way of genetic mutation). Some such "experiments" take hold in a population because on average they benefit the survival of that animal in that particular environment (adaptation). As generation gives way to generation a million, a billion, a trillion times over, the adaptations that remain are the ones that do a useful job and do it efficiently.

Enter Homo sapiens sapiens a scant 150,000 years ago. Then came abstract thought, symbolic…
