Biology Week Two: EVO-DEVO

Evo-Devo is going to be the name of my next band... and I'm playing synth... ok fine, not really but I can already hear it.
Evo-Devo in biological terms has to do with how evolution and development interact with each other in determining how development evolved. Personally, I think they need to get a historian in there too. Especially when it comes to peoples. Western Science sometimes misses big "answers" to their questions because they aren't including other studies of life. When studying humans, history must be taken account.

Darwinism is a rather simple theory, I suppose. It's just hard to see if you're not looking on a big time line spanning many many years. After our talk in class, I'm beginning to think I have the body type that is being weeded out. Eh, that's fine. I'm not too worried about it. Change is bound to happen and IS happening at all times. I've always been extremely sensitive to this modern world anyway. I hope I don't pass on these troubles to my children but EVO DEVO is telling me I probably will... as long as they have sweet synth skills tho, I'll know I've done my job.

  1. Yeh, I think of evolution as nothing more than things change over time. We must definitely realize that this vast time scale is difficult for the human brain to grasp.
    Have you considered a synth family band? You could play the soundtrack for the next stage of evolution!
