During the 1980s the Science-Art Research Centre in Australia discovered the life-force governing 50 million years of seashell evolution. The science advisor to the Belgrade Institute of Physics, Petar Grujic, has published that ancient Greek science included infinite fractal geometric concepts (Grujic P. V. January 2001). These were used to make that discovery. The Centre’s computer program generated seashell simulations that matched the existing geometry inscribed into the world’s seashell fossil record. This discovery was reprinted by the world’s largest technological research institute, IEEE in Washington, as one of the important optical mathematical discoveries from 20th Century literature (Illert, C. 1987). It was placed alongside such names as Louis Pasteur and Francis Crick.
