Reverse Biomimicry

Jamais Cascio, one of MeshForum's keynote speakers shared the following with us. WorldChanging: Another World Is Here: More Reverse Biomimicry

This is the MeshForum Thesis in a single paragraph - understanding Networks in one context can and will lead to advances and new insights in others. In this example, a model developed to explain the propagation of computer viruses across the Internet helped other researchers studying ecology model the spread of an invasive flea.

Exactly the type of interdisciplinary approach we are seeking with MeshForum, and why we are about "Connecting Networks".
