Very neat concept. Love to see biomimicry in action. More great stuff available at https://biomimicry.org/ https://biomimicry.org/. And for anyone wondering —

  Wasn't sure why they called biology "chaotic". Complex, yes, but chaotic? No. More like "we don't understand it".

    “Chaotic” may be an appropriate term. I mean, “Chaos Theory” (using a very technical definition of the word “chaos” which is only serving as an analogy here) deals with systems that are understandable and somewhat predictable in the near term but with a certain amount of a particular kind of complexity that makes it totally unpredictable in the long term. Even when you understand that he fundamental, reductionist physics. A simple pendulum is predictable over the near and far term. A double pendulum, on the other hand, is “chaotic,” and fundamentally not predictable in the long term, even though all the relevant fundamental physical laws are known. I think “chaos” is a good word describing something which is in between the fully predictable and the purely random.

  There possibly is great stuff there, but after having dismissed the third popup in roughly as many seconds, I gave up and hit the back button. I've no idea why websites do this. No one wants it.

    Those 3 clicks to close the popups probably were seen as more "engagement". ;)
