Sincetheinceptionoftheeldabout16years ago with a seminal workshop at the Santa Fe Institute, the ?eld has developed quickly. Itsinterdisciplinaryrootshavebeenbothablessingandacurse. Critical people would say that nothing was new in the ideas of Articial Life, since many other disciplines had addressed the very same questions, though probably under dierent names. Other critics would state that the diculty of interacting in an interdisciplinary way with colleagues from so many other and divergent ?elds would be so great that true progress could not come from such an enterprise, as those involved would be too busy understanding - or misunderstanding - each other. Admirers, on the other hand, would speak of a bold new attack on the most fascinating questions of science with this new approach. Others would say that new perspectives were opened by the questions the area of Articial Life askedsopointedly. Forthoseinvolvedinthiseortoversomeyears,ithasalways been very interesting and fascinating to work on these questions. From our discussions it also seems that Articial Life is beginning to become mainstream. Evolutionarybiology,computationalandsystemsbiology,andc- putational social science, to name a few, are disciplines benetting from ideas hedgedinArticialLife. This,plusthesuccessofopen-endedevolutionarygames in the entertainment industry, the sensibility achieved with decades of work - hind us in articial evolutionary approaches with ?xed ?tness measures, and the development of technology towards a networked, asynchronous, world of inter- tingentities,haveallconspiredtopreparetheoorforAliferesearchcominginto its own. Notably the concept of emergence of new qualities from the interaction of entities without this quality has been a huge success in recent years.
