Abstract
- Information plays a key role in life and in complex biological systems, and dynamical systems underlie and can be used to represent many complex systems. Indeed, dynamical systems and information processing capabilities may be the hallmarks of life-like systems. In this paper we combine dynamical systems with a computational framework to generate art. The framework can be used to generate aesthetically appealing forms of life-like systems. Our work suggests that we may need an "aesthetic sense" to recognize life that we have not seen before. We also provide teaching resources for students in schools and undergraduate institutions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
