Symmetry is at the heart of everything; without symmetry the universe collapses. Intelligence operates over symmetric verses non-symmetric IMO. But everything is ultimately grounded in symmetry. BTW kind of related, was just watching this neat video - the soundtrack needs to be redone though :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4dpRPTwsKJs Why does the brain have bi-lateral symmetry I wonder and why is the heart not symmetric? Some researchers say consciousness is both heart and brain.
