The Meaning Code | Evolution 2.0 and Perry Marshall's Frame: Life is Fractal and All Cells are Self-Aware @TheMeaningCode | Uploaded October 2022 | Updated October 2024, 10 hours ago.
Perry Marshall, author of Evolution 2.0, along with a team of investors and entrepreneurs, offers a $10 million prize for anyone who can "show an example of a code that's not designed. You only need one."
We discuss evolution, cell awareness, cell's ability to rewrite its own code and solve problems. Links to everything we discussed follow timestamps:
00:00 Intro
01:11 Where does the genetic code come from? What gives life the ability to act on its own behalf?
02:54 Michael Levin has presented to the Cancer & Evolution working group
05:00 Russian dolls as an analog for the 7 layers of encoding
10:30 Packets of genes wound in spiral patterns in a 3 dimensional structure
13:58 Barbara McClintock's research. Cells can rewrite their own code. The gene is an organ under the control o the cell.
16:50 Genes build the plant, the plant modifies the gene.
19:00 Questions about cells and the role of anomaly in cell maturity and growth of the organism
24:20 A suggested framework: Lie is fractal. All cells are self-aware.
Self-awareness goes down to the sub-cellular level.
30:10 Group sentience as a fractal analog of human community
34:45 Book recommended by Michael Levin: Soul of the White Ant, written in 1936
35:30 Rupert Sheldrake's experiments with dogs' awareness
39:10 Natural selection through evolution, NOT evolution through Natural Selection.
Natural Selection is an outcome, not an explanation.
41:00 Barbara McClintock's question: What does a cell know about itself? How did it know what to do? (Levin's xenobots, also)
44:30 Cancer & evolution working group discussing the self-awareness of cancer cells
45:00 The frog is General Motors, the skin cells are the guys that got laid off.
50:00 The psychology of oneness
55:30 The church as the body
56:20 Cancer as a response to stress
1:01:05 Living things don't just obey mathematics. They create mathematics.
1:04:15 Computation as a symphony of choices over time.
1:009:00 The way to solve it is to understand consciousness & cognition & find the missing law of physics.
