Speculative biology is simultaneously a science and form of art in which one speculates on the possibilities of life and evolution. What could the world look like if dinosaurs had never gone extinct? What could alien lifeforms look like? What kinds of plants and animals might exist in the far future? These questions and more are tackled by speculative biologists, and the Speculative Evolution welcomes all relevant ideas, inquiries, and world-building projects alike. With a member base comprising users from across the world, our community is the largest and longest-running place of gathering for speculative biologists on the web.

Many of you may have heard of Tim Morris aka Pristichampsus, but for those who do not, he is a prolific artist and spec-biologist with an interest in cryptozoology. He has also contributed to the Neocene project and the Speculative Dinosaur Project (I hate Little for calling it uncreative). This is a topic to discuss his many works, which are linked to below.

Because some of them are not just "weird for the sake of being weird" and build upon established canon.

Not really, some of those are still weird for the sake of being weird, beaked rodents, cephalopods with elbows, the hog and the flish are still okay with the actual canon though.

For the image I do not understand what exactly refers to "soul"? If you mean more design and ideas, both are on the same leve, for plausibility Morris said that these are supposed to be as plausible as the ones of the documentary so there is nothing relevant, and if you mean more species, that would make some sense but still doesn't constitute to have more soul that the original source material.

Projects

"Active" projects

The Future is Far
Welcome to the next chapters of the evolution of life on earth, travel the across the earth on a journey that goes beyond the limits, a billion years of future history in the making.

The SE giants project
Wonder what is the big of the big on speculative evolution? no problem, here is the answer

Coming one day
Age of Mankind
Humanity fate and its possible finals.

The Long Cosmic Journey
The history outside our world.

The alternative paths
The multiverse, the final frontier...

Holocene park: Welcome to the biggest adventure of the last 215 million years, where the age of mammals comes to life again!
Cambrian mars: An interesting experiment on an unprecedented scale, the life of a particular and important period in the history of our planet, the cambric life, has been transported to a terraformed and habitable mars in an alternative past.
Two different paths, two different worlds, but same life and same weirdness.

Disagreed. While Tim Morris is certainly one of the greats of spec, tfiw makers had some creative ideas as well. I dont see anything wrong with the plausibilty of TFiW myself except for the fact that the spink and several other 5 MYH animals (though the spinky is by far the most egregious example) seem to have been to far derived for their age. Also, about the "Tim Morris work is superior in every single way" thing also is just wrong in my opinion. Seriously Megasquid and Bumblebeetle and windrunner were uncreative (that is what i am assume your meaning of the comment is)? Why? what is so very bad about the future is wild anyway?
