Electrical Blueprints of Life

We are not just matter, we are electromagnetic creatures.

It is called bioelectricity. (I prefer bioelectromagnetism.)

Now, do you still believe you are a machine?

Do you believe that the electromagnetic pollution that is swamping the modern world has no effect on electromagnetic creatures, such as you?

Watch carefully the experimental proof that such fields can also be inherited - and manipulated.

I sent Levin a brief message some time ago - with no reply. But there remains one big issue, that Levin mentions, that having such an electromagnetic architecture at the organism level requires some form of storage. There exist particles that could potentially do this; they are tiny biomagnets (magnetosomes) that exist in humans down to even bacteria. Just as in cellular automata, it is not necessary to hold the whole plan, but just enough to generate the next step, thereby creating a sequence that leads to the final outcome.

Sadly, when talking about the applications of these discoveries, we come back to the machine-model, with so-called regenerative medicine being about creating transplantable organs instead of somehow fixing the existing organs in vivo.
