"After Darwin described the mechanism of evolution by natural selection in the Origin of Species, he had a big problem, and that was the explanation of ornament in nature—those features of the body of animals and plants that function not in furthering the struggle for survival, but in communication with other individuals, and often in the context of mating or ecological interactions.

What I'm coming to conclude is that this is a big watershed in evolutionary biology, and that there's a distinct process that occurs when we have evolution occurring through a cognitive or mental substrate. That is, when it's about attracting another individual.

I would refer to this area as aesthetic evolution, and the main topic in aesthetic evolution is the origin of beauty."
