Organism-Environment Interface

In most software systems, interface is hard-coded and cannot evolve. The same is true for experiments of in vitro evolution of RNA molecules
Bird & Layzell argue that novel sensors and interactions can only evolve in systems situated in the physical world
I argue that it is possible to study these issues, to a degree, in software systems, but only if the nature of the relationship between organism and environment is reconsidered...
