What do you think of my evolution project/animation? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8X-j0dbZWs http://evolutionanimation.wordpress.com/what-is-this/

I've been 'evolving' more animals (and even plants) since I made that animation http://evolutionanimation.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/tyler-rhodes-evolution-phylogenetic-tree-extended.jpg

You can see all the divergent paths that develop. It's probably somewhat similar to the computer models you come up with, only I used people as 'DNA' and a host of other things.
At the moment I'm trying to make a sort of 'virtual world' with plants and creatures in their 'time appropriate' environment as far as their evolution goes on my charts. You can try my (unfinished) version in your browser(with a small Unity plug-in install) here https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/59922961/evolution%20game.html
Controls are w,a,s,d mouse and spacebar

Hello Bernie! Do you think you could play the old song, (Casey Would Waltz with a Strawberry Blonde) And the Band Played On?

Kind of tangentially related to dinosaurs, but I have an evolution project where I teach people (mostly children) about evolution by 'evolving' their drawings, and usually animating the results. Initially I had a temnospondylic creature and its evolved into a couple of things that look like dinosaurs, but there's always a wide variety of different forms. I'm always looking for more people to carry on the project with, and have partnered with schools and museums in the past, but do you think it may be possible to do something with the Smithsonian? You can see more detailed information here, and I'd love to know what you think! http://evolutionanimation.wordpress.com/what-is-this/
