- More about Embryogeny and Phylogeny of the Human Posture 1: A New Glance at the Future of our Species
The future of the human posture is discussed, with a focus on the 2,500-year-old thinking on the place of verticalized human anatomy and its reflexive consciousness in the natural history of life and the Earth. The origin of animated forms was considered metaphysical until the 19th century, but reflection on their inception paved the way for mathematics of infinitesimal geometry and dynamics. Jean-Baptiste de Lamarck's locomotion postulate explained the transition from quadrupedal to bipedal posture, but this doctrine was overturned in 1987 by the discovery of the embryonic origins of the straightening-specific dynamics linked to neurogenesis. Sapiens are at the physical limit of the straightening, but mechanisms of gametogenesis continue to make neurogenesis exponentially more complex. The discovery of human verticality and nervous system complexity has implications for posturologists, occlusodontics, osteopaths, and cognisciences, as it allows Sapiens to face their natural destiny.

The future of human posture is a topic of intense scrutiny and debate, as the 200-year-old locomotion paradigm faces the relentless advance of knowledge. However, the profound insights into the place of verticalized human anatomy and its reflexive consciousness in the natural history of life and the Earth, spanning over 2,500 years, remain more relevant than ever. In this book, we embark on a journey to retrace these reflections from pre-Socratic philosophers, with a particular focus on the intricate connection between verticality and the most complex and consciously reflexive nervous system found at the highest level of living beings.
Until the 19th century, the origin of animated forms, or animals, was considered a metaphysical mystery. However, the reflection on their inception, from fertilization to the development of complex nervous systems, paved the way for the emergence of mathematics, including infinitesimal geometry and dynamics. The concept of simian filiation, which posited the transition from quadrupedal to bipedal posture through inheritance of acquired characteristics, remained inconceivable until Jean-Baptiste de Lamarck bridged the gap in 1802 with the locomotion postulate. This postulate explained the shift from four-legged to two-legged gait, supported by the hypothesis of inheritance of acquired characteristics.
However, this doctrine was overturned in 1987 with the discovery of the embryonic origins of the straightening-specific dynamics linked to neurogenesis. This groundbreaking finding confirmed the natural place of human verticality and the complexity of the human nervous system, with its profound psychomotor and cognitive consequences. While Sapiens have reached the physical limit of straightening, mechanisms of gametogenesis have continued to make neurogenesis exponentially more complex. This discovery has sparked a wide range of responses from posturologists, occlusodontics, osteopaths, and cognisciences, all anthropological sciences that are concerned with human verticality. It raises important questions about the future of human posture and its potential implications for space exploration.
As Sapiens confronts this remarkable discovery, it becomes clear that the future holds both terrestrial and extraterrestrial possibilities. Posturologists, for instance, are exploring new approaches to optimize human posture and prevent related health issues. Occlusodontics and osteopaths are studying the relationship between dental alignment and overall body posture, with the aim of promoting optimal health and well-being. Cognisciences are delving into the cognitive aspects of human verticality, including the impact of posture on cognitive function, attention, and learning.
In conclusion, the future of human posture is a complex and multifaceted issue that requires a multidisciplinary approach. The insights into the place of verticalized human anatomy and its reflexive consciousness, spanning thousands of years, continue to shape our understanding of human evolution and development. As we navigate the challenges and opportunities of the 21st century, it is essential to embrace the knowledge gained from our ancestors and to explore new horizons, both on Earth and beyond.
