Abstract

The document contains fourteen pictures of waves of evolutionary activity created by alleles in the sensory-motor strategies of agents in Packard's Scatter model.1 The quality of these waves indicate di erent kinds of evolutionary phenomena involving signi cant adaptations in sensory-motor rules. The purpose of this document is only to depict a variety of kinds of evolutionary phenomena, not to explain those phenomena a job for another occasion. The following papers contain more background on evolutionary activity waves and Packard's Scatter model.
