James Gardner's biocosm theory proposes that the appearance of life in the universe is no accident or chance event. Rather, he views life as an expression of a great cosmic intelligence, hardwired into a timeless, dynamic cycle of creation, evolution, and renewal. The ultimate purpose of highly evolved life, Gardner argues, is ultimately to infuse the entire universe with intelligence, eventually creating a single, vast, cosmic life form.

In this Voices talk, recorded in Boston, Gardner presents Biocosm, his eloquent and lucid synthesis of the most recent advances in cosmology and complexity theory. This cutting-edge theory, which has won praise from leading scientists and cosmologists around the world, challenges both Darwinists and advocates of intelligent design, and challenges us to consider that we may in fact be the primary shapers of the cosmos of the future.
