I'm finally sorting through my #Alife2023 pictures to write the blog posts I promised to @emilydolson, when I came across this one.

This is a chart of flower types and their uses that I found at Sapporo's Botanical garden.

Please notice on the bottom right the "incantation goods" legend, which in Japanese is marked as "curses" :3

A great video summary of #ALIFE2023. Thanks very much Jitka Cejkova

国際会議3つハシゴしましたけどやっぱり ALIFE がダントツで狂ってて一番面白いです.

I'm surprised that #ALIFE2023 is the first time that Ted Chiang was invited to a science conference! Totally agree with his point that the relationship between SciFi and science is really synergistic, and it was really great having him here. I hope we can have more science fiction writers at future conferences!
テッド・チャン氏の主張はすごく真面目で真っ当だと思う。物理レベルのシミュレーション無しに、偶然に意識が誕生することはないだろう。一方で、意識があるように人を騙すシステムは容易にできる。そして2つの議論は完全に分けるべきだ、という主張。虚構を扱う作家として筋が通ってる #ALIFE2023
Also, we created artificial lives ourselves yesterday during the #ALIFE2023 excursion to teamLab's Future Park and Animals of Flowers, Symbiotic Live @ Sapporo Art Museum - say hi to my strawberry hat squit (and me)!
This morning, I presented our work on the evolution of dynamic collective behaviors by minimizing surprise #ALIFE2023. Despite being in the first session after last night's conference dinner, there was quite some audience! Thanks for showing up :)
In about 15 minutes at #ALife2023 , I'll be running a session in Room 2 on the ALife Encyclopedia (a wiki-like community-curated reference website)! Stop by to learn about the project, debug any issues with contributing, and participate in a mini writing hackathon!
