The Iokasti hypothesis

"life processes have destabilizing effects, rather than homeostatic ones, upon the environment that they rely upon for survival" Shaviro. Symbiosis leads not to homeostasic whole...

Iokasti sits nicely as mother model between Gaia and Medea to express the contingent and unexpected affects of symbiotic relations. By avoiding the extremity of the nice and caring  Lovelock's hypothesis (Gaia) as well as Ward's (Medea) evil and destructive, Iokasti hypothesis focuses on relations of exteriority with no a priori positive or negative overtone.
