playing demiurge

Systematical use of trial and error (evolution) has made us, stubborn beings, interested by displays and keyboards, curious and addicted to bricolage. Some more stubborn and perseverant than others, some more systematic, some just better organised. And of course, we all love LEGO. And alchimia.
You mesh it all up, and a web of intricate logic sprouts into existence. And we play demiurge, with life as the coach, and topic, of the lesson. Isn't that fantastic ?
With open source, and a growing registry, it's all out there for artisan biologists and computer addicts to play with http://partsregistry.org/.
The outcomes ? I'd say ... 42 !
