An intellectual journey from Neo-Darwinism to "covolution" and "Biosophy 2.0."
When I was around 20, I found psychological comfort in Neo-Darwinian determinism - that state of radical acceptance where everything simply "is" without value judgments, leading to what I describe as a nirvana-like freedom from anxiety and desire.
There was a transition through questions about direction in evolution and the concept of "value". I began to challenge my own purely mechanistic evolutionary view of life.
I shifted from seeing the universe as a "physical container of atoms and stars" to conceptualizing it as "mathematical consistency".
It represents a fundamental philosophical pivot.
My concept of "covolution" addresses what I see as limitations in extending Darwinian principles too broadly across human society.
Instead of pure competition and selection, I propose understanding life as an active, cooperative computational process working against entropy - with humans as participants in a cosmic information-condensing project.
The "fifth law of thermodynamics" I playfully propose is meant to be provocative - the idea that the universe computes toward perfect organization and negentropy, with biological entities as the actuators of this process.
I critique of applying Darwinian metaphors too broadly to human institutions (companies, sports, families) from observation about how scientific frameworks can become oversimplified social philosophies.
