"Red Queen Principle" definition; Van Valen L. in 1973 wrote "A New Evolutionary Law", Evolution Theory 1, p.1-30. In it he postulated that in an evolutionary species there is needed continued development in order to keep its place in the changing environment that exists all around it. He developed his concept from Lewis Carroll's Through the Looking Glass where the queen said, "it takes all the running you can do, to keep in the same place."

Script of THE RED QUEEN
The Perfect Performance Art Piece. This is a combination of Plato's
Cave In Color and the alternate version of Alice In The Garden
of Time. These performances were combined due to scheduling problems
at the performance venue (Dayton Gym Club, 430 Wayne Ave., Dayton Ohio)
October 28th, 2006. The necessity of combining created the Perfect
Performance Art Piece. Each Performers part and props can stand alone as a
complete Performance Art Piece as well as this Internet site. Or they can be
combined in any manner to become a complete Performance Art Piece. There are
at least ten possible combinations. The perfection as a Performance Art
Piece is that each of the three on stage performers could perform their part
as an individual Performance Art Piece. The "Crack in the Mirror" could
perform her piece alone as an individual piece. "FRED" is the name we gave
this web site, could exist alone as a Performance Art Piece. The perfection
is that all performances stand alone or stand combined.
