SYNTHETIC LIFE LAB

The Blueprints of Creation, Shaping Life by Natural Geometry reports the discovery of the origin of living form in emergent geometrical patterns in the growth of an eight-cell common ancestor.

Theorem: The origin of biological form is the mechanically directed, crystallographic elaboration of the eight-cell cubical matrix formed by the first three divisions of the primordial egg.  The gamut of complex biological forms and surface patterns may be demonstrated to proceed geometrically from  this axiom, as do snowflakes from a hexagonal field.

The Discovery of the Last Universal Common Ancestor

The Earth, bubbles, and living cells are in the form of the sphere, a fundamental property of space. Cells alternately grow and split in two. The first three cleavages of a primordial cell resulted in a stable structure of eight interconnected cells—comprising two sides, top and bottom, front and back—the last universal common ancestor. Its descendants produce a body with left and right sides, head and tail, back and belly.

Further subdivision of the ancestral octet produce patterns that are predicted by the geometry of an eight-cell structure in spatial and hydrodynamic equilibrium. These emergent patterns are universally congruent with natural forms, evidence that this algorithm is a candidate solution to the problem of the origin of living form.

The publication of The Blueprints of Creation, The Shaping of Life by Self-Organization, will present the discovery of the mathematical algorithm used by nature to design the plant and animal body.

Based on the geometry of subdividing spheres called palintomy, the topological algorithm accurately generates body plans for complex life. The discovery has been acclaimed enthusiastically by a number of prominent scientists as the solution to the most important problem facing biology, the origin and evolution of life.

The graphical dynamical model of the path from one cell to the human body is included in sixty plates of animations which depict the origin of the major life forms including the human skeleton, the body forms of the vertebrates, insects and crustaceans, as well as skin patterns and the archetypal form of flowers.

The model is an alternative to neo-Darwinism, the theory of the natural selection of random genetic mutations that is still dogma in many schools. Although peer-review-published and conference presented, the new paradigm for biology has been met with vehement opposition. The acceptance of this new paradigm for the science of biology presents a revised view of the role of the genes, offering new paths for cancer research. As an asset to astrobiology, the model predicts what life elsewhere in the universe is most likely to look like. Creationists may no longer rightly claim that biology has no theory for the mechanism of evolution.
