London Science Fiction Festival: Life, but not as we know it.
Just got back from doing a debate at the London Science Fiction Festival. The theme was “Life, but not as we know it.” I was on a panel with chemist George Attard and Rachel Armstrong. I showed a series of videos illustrating some of the ALife work we do in my group, including some nice models by my PhD students Udi Schlessinger (who’s now completed his doctorate) and Erwan Le Martelot. Not a lot of new ground covered, but I guess the science was new to the science fiction fans. Quite nice talking in the posh Apollo Theatre, Regent St, though.
