Goals & ArchitectureCore-physics precursor to the EvoGrid
•Large numbers of atomic objects (quanta of varying properties)
•Movement of and encounters between quanta in simulated space
•Joining and breaking of bonds between quanta
•Malleability of space and time which permit analogues to solid, liquid and gaseous states and support transitions between these states
•Simulation of energy flows between sources and sinks (heat, waves)
•Random perturbations to the whole system at various levels
![Page 47: The EvoGrid Presentation to Center for Fundamental Living Technology (FLinT) University of Southern Denmark, Odense Feb 24, 2009 By Bruce Damer Founder/CEO](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062409/56649dfe5503460f94ae67a9/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
ArchitectureAutopoesis (ratcheting through self-organization search space)
•Fellermann and Solé et al: coarse-graining and scaling in dissipative particle dynamics, Spartacus.
•Multi-grid simulation (multi resolution).
•Object oriented vs simplistic batch-numerical processing
•Observer function, non-biasing of simulation (processes offline regular dumps)
•Simulation is “griddable” using BOINC a la SETI@Home
•Simulation is secure

Next Steps
• Design Core Physics Module (determine best practices, re-use of existing open components)
• Design Observer Function & visualization interface.• Test runs & iterate• Correspondence to wet chemisty• Suggestion of eventual bridge between Soft & Wet Alife• Analysis, publication

EvoGrid:Philosophical Implications
Will biologists (one day) declare synthetic biological environments “worthy of study as a living system”?
Would an EvoGrid harnessing the power of evolution become a design tool for Humanity in the 21st Century? Would it become a mechanism for life’s expansion into the Solar System or for the survival and extension of life on Earth?
How does a successful origin of life simulation affect our sense of God, our place in the Universe and the future of life?
