− | + | Try a new experience! Explore the [[Evolutionary Knowledge Base]] through the [http://www.evknowledge.org/eksmv_fs_en.htm Semantic Maps Viewer - SMV]. A web resource that allows you to explore the land of Evolutionary Knowledge, among concepts and relations that form semantic networks organized in thematic maps. | |
<br> | <br> | ||
− | + | A succession of maps organized in successive levels of hierarchy will help you go down from the more general level of the Universal Reality, through increasingly specific and detailed areas, up to the very foundations of Nature and the Universe. | |
<br> | <br> | ||
− | + | Principles, physical entities, natural phenomena, cognitive developments, all concepts are represented by a network of graphical objects, allowing easy access to the pages that form the Evolutionary Knowledge Base and, together, to capture the structure and internal organization of the Evolutionary Knowledge System. | |

The contributions would be used partly to meet the costs of the storage media that allow the existence of websites, the dissemination of research results (which are granted with a Creative Commons license), the interaction of researchers and all stakeholders. In part would serve to directly support the research activities, to acquire adequate computing power for the simulations, and so on. | |

− | |style="color:#000;"| | + | |style="color:#000;"|Old questions and modern ones are intertwined in the mind. It is a long history that has accompanied the mankind in his evolution. A story of survival, in search of food, security, power. The tension towards life, towards the infinite, the eternal. An history of small steps toward knowledge, and sudden revolutions that change the entire look of reality. |
− | + | <br> | |
− | + | Eyes that scan the sky, to understand the present and explore the future, who look at life around us, who interrogate signs, eyes wishing certainty, in the chaotic and immense sea of existence. More consistent images take form in the minds of men who dare to scan the mystery, who know how preserve what is valuable and abandon what they know is braking. | |
− | + | <br> | |
− | + | Now we are facing an immense and precious legacy, ideas, diagrams, models and theories. We thank these men and women who wanted and were able to build the knowledge so far, including brilliant insights, monumental mistakes, impeccable deductions and accidental discoveries. Thank you for your dedication, sometimes unconscious, toward discovery, to understand the world, the life, the Man. | |
− | + | <br> | |
− | + | We thank the West and the East, for the complementarity of approaches and results, we thank scientists and humanists, artists and technicians, patrons and obscurantist, for the great adventure that has brought us so far, to enjoy this great shimmering mosaics, the human knowledge. | |
− | + | <br> | |
+ | A mosaic, while embracing the whole landscape, from the human microcosm to the physical macrocosm, unfortunately, still shows large gaps and areas of inconsistency. Sometimes seems to miss that sense of unity and universality, the human spirit is searching turning to God. Many are the attempts, both on the scientific and on the humanistic / spiritual side, reconciling very distant aspects, phenomena apparently alien among them. | ||
+ | <br> | ||
+ | Many more the attempts to understand the phenomena closer to the immediate reality, to the world that we explore with our internal and external senses, and with the innumerable and surprising fruits of technology. An unresolved tension is leading us towards the exasperated analysis, moving away, at the same time, from the unifying synthesis. | ||
+ | <br> | ||
+ | It is with humility that, with this work, in the presence of such a legacy, we turn to the search for the unity and the depth of the vision of Nature in its becoming, creation and incessant evolution. | ||
+ | <br> | ||
+ | But it's also with a little presumption, while respecting and building on that tradition, we dare to venture into territory already beaten, with new and disenchanted eyes, hoping to catch small signs, if not definitive evidences, of a larger pattern of universal and essential principles, that can help us to see reality as it is. | ||
