EXAPTATION "is a term used in evolutionary biology to describe a trait that has been co-opted for a use other than the one for which natural selection has built it." Darwin first conceived of the idea. http://www.livescience.com/39688-exaptation.html View in LinkedIn

SOCIETAL EXAPTATION. "All epoch-making discoveries have in their wake a revision of pre-existing ideas." https://lnkd.in/ewBp2XF View in LinkedIn

EXAPTATION OF OLD ERRORS. “Complex features arise by building on simpler features. The functions use bits and pieces of older functions, then tweak them here and there to get the new function." https://lnkd.in/dvEXJwm View in LinkedIn

EMERGENCE. "This continuum from non-life to life is an example of emergence?" https://lnkd.in/dYRg2SW View in LinkedIn

NON-OBVIOUS. "Emergent high-level properties are interesting, non-obvious consequences of low-level properties." https://lnkd.in/dmJdbxk View in LinkedIn

THE EDGE OF CHAOS. "Emergence occurs in a narrow possibility space lying between conditions that are too ordered and too disordered. This boundary or margin is the edge of chaos, which is always far from equilibrium. Near these equilibriums, a system has the ability to self-organise allowing an emergent phenomenon." https://lnkd.in/dfAjwzM View in LinkedIn

EMERGENT PHENOMENA. "The crowning source of complication is that processes at all these different scales interact with one another: These multi-scale interactions produce emergent phenomena, including life and consciousness.” http://news.vanderbilt.edu/2011/10/robot-biologist/ View in LinkedIn

ENERGY, PHENOTYPE AND EMERGENCE. "In such natural processes, everything depends on everything else, and phenotypes are emergent properties of their systems." https://lnkd.in/dJdiNmR View in LinkedIn

SIMPLE COMPLEXITY. "Emergence is the phenomenon wherein complex, interesting high-level function is produced as a result of combining simple low-level mechanisms in simple ways." http://consc.net/notes/emergence.html View in LinkedIn
