The Creative Process in Nature

                                           
                                             "It's not often one can improve upon nature"  

(James Lovelock: Independent Scientist/Inventor, Author of Gaia Theory on BBC TVseries, "Beautiful Minds")

Cells are the simplest form of self-contained, self-sustaining life.  Everything that we consider to be "alive" is made up of living cells.  In "Society and Solitude" (1912) Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote:

 "all art should to nature for its inspiration, true art resides in the model, in the plan, for it is upon this that the genius of the artist is expended."
