Introducing ASAL: Automating the Search for Artificial Life with... Foundation Models Artificial Life (ALife) research holds key insights that can transform and accelerate progress in AI. By speeding up ALife discovery with AI, we accelerate our understanding of emergence, evolution, and intelligence–core principles that can inspire the next generation of AI systems! We proudly collaborated with MIT, OpenAI, Swiss AI Lab IDSIA, and Ken Stanley on this exciting project. Full Paper (Website): Full Paper (arxiv): Code: In this work, we propose a new algorithm called Automated Search for Artificial Life (“ASAL”) to automate the discovery of artificial life using vision-language foundation models. Instead of tediously hand-designing every tiny rule of an Alife simulation, simply describe the space of simulations to search over, and ASAL will automatically discover the most interesting and open-ended artificial lifeforms! Because of the generality of foundation models, ASAL can discover new lifeforms across a diverse range of seminal ALife simulations, including Boids, Particle Life, Game of Life, Lenia, and Neural Cellular Automata. ASAL even discovered novel cellular automata rules that are more open-ended and expressive than the original Conway’s Game of Life. We believe this new paradigm may reignite ALife research by overcoming the bottleneck of manually designed simulations, thus advancing beyond the limits of human ingenuity.show more

Ricky Retouch x The Garden Presenting: ‘Split Logic’ A... collection of 100 procedural motion works inspired by analog display systems from the 1970s–90s. Built from screen partitions, coded labels, moving fields, and rule-based color, the series imagines terminals from an unknown system: part diagnostic interface, part speculative machine language. Across the works, information drifts between utility and abstraction. Grids flicker. Signals scatter. Motion emerges through directional noise, shifting points, and algorithmic constraints that never fully settle into order. The surfaces move away from the paper-like texture of earlier collections toward something colder, denser, and more digital. Glow, blur, compression, and instability become part of the material itself.show more

ONE YEAR OF THE DAILY PROGRAM ⎯ Artist recap:... Puff Yachty Over the past year, Fellowship's Daily Program has showcased the evolution of AI art, becoming a central platform for artists redefining what's possible with AI and NFTs. With contributions from 137 artists and over 3,142 works, the program continues to highlight groundbreaking creators exploring new frontiers of generative art. Among these artists is Puff Yachty, whose work dives into the surreal and philosophical. Since joining the program, Puff Yachty has crafted a distinctive body of work that blurs the lines between reality, perception, and the unknown. His series, Experiments in Motion, uses AI to create immersive audiovisual symphonies, translating human emotions and dreams into abstract journeys through time, space, and the elements. Recurring themes in his work include questioning the nature of reality, exploring the interconnectedness of the universe, and embracing the ephemeral beauty of existence. His ability to pair custom AI-generated visuals with music underscores a deep commitment to making each piece a fully sensory experience. Works like Pink Saturn and Teal Eye challenge the viewer to consider whether life is a simulation, while How to Make a Blade Whisper transforms the philosophy of Musashi Miyamoto into a poetic exploration of mastery and enlightenment. With 34 works on the platform, Puff Yachty’s contributions feel less like traditional digital art and more like stepping into a meditative, ever-shifting dreamscape. Each piece is a question, an invitation to explore the nature of self, and a reminder that in art—much like in life—the journey is as important as the destination. Here are some of his standout pieces: Levitationshow more
