ABSTRACT

All organisms are conscious because they evolve by Symbiogenesis, but Man is unique in having imagination due to the way in which our consciousness has evolved due to endothermy enabling bipedalism, freeing the forelimbs for toolmaking in combination with language, oral and written as forms of toolmaking. That concatenation of traits put huge selection pressure on our central nervous system, giving rise to the brain as a specialized neuronal structure. Hence our capacity for imagination was enabled by bipedalism and endothermy.
