Abstract

Natural design is an interaction of both adaptive evolutionary forces and generative developmental processes --- evo-devo. We consider how evo-devo principles can be applied to the design of living machines, and how biohybrid societies (comprising machines and organisms) may be used as a new form of scientific model.
