Sher's TWEANN work cites NEAT and HyperNEAT quite extensively — Stanley's original work here is pretty influential in the neuroevolution space!

I missed that, thanks! I'll have to take another look.

When I think of neural networks that evolve changes in their topology and the weights between those connections, over and over towards optimizing a solution to function, I get the vision of the recursive Life in Life video[1] where Conway's Game of Life is emulated in Game of Life.
