Example of new artwork that has been evolved since the initial shows. All these pieces were created using the evolve-it tools, are children from the pieces in the Darwin show. So while offspring from the orginal Darwin's Gaze work, they do not have the evolutionary pressure toward Darwin portrait but more the direction viewers decided to evolve towards at the momment. Hence the name "Swimming away from Darwin". Try the evovle-it tool yourself and send me the genotype to add to theses.
