Attending #UCNC2026 at University of Trieste, Italy this week

Join us at #CCS2026 to celebrate a milestone! 🏆 Howard Pattee's Centennial satellite explores the physics of symbols, epistemic cuts, and fresh directions for #ALife and AI Research. Dive into the deep theoretical questions bridging biology, computation, and meaning. 🦠🤖

The "Womplexity meets @cssusne.bsky.social" satellite is bringing together women researchers at all career stages to share work, find mentorship, and build lasting professional networks, creating a supportive space to #WomenInSTEM working on #ComplexSystems and #NetworkScience! 👩‍🔬✨

Join a full-day workshop celebrating Howard H. Pattee's Centennial! 🎉 There, we will explore how the tools of physical biosemiotics and the understanding of epistemic cuts in science can derive in novel directions for Life & AI research. 🦠🤖 #Biosemiotics #ALife #Pattee100

Can holistic approaches / meditation inform complexity science?🧘 Join us at #CCS2026 to bridge first-person experience with systemic rigor. At the contemplative studies satellite, we'll explore agency, consciousness, and epistemology in a truly unique interdisciplinary dialogue!

Notifications have been sent to the authors! 📬 If you haven't received it, check your spam. 📁 If your paper was accepted, congratulations! 🎉 If you're not yet on board with #CCS2026, what are you waiting for? Submit your abstract to any of our SIXTEEN satellite events! 🛰️👇

The #ALIFE2026 Call for Art Submissions has been extended! New deadline: June 27, 2026 We welcome proposals exploring Artificial Life, bioart, generative systems, robotics, emergence, ecology, and more. 📅 Conference: August 17–21, 2026, Waterloo, Canada 2026.alife.org/call-for-art...

Is it fair to ask a researcher based in the UK to pay the same membership fee for a scientific society as a researcher based in Bangladesh? Until now, they did! @css-conference.bsky.social has introduced a special membership fee of €1 per year. Here are more details: cssociety.org/membership/ 🗺️

Don't know how often @sethbullock.bsky.social visits here so I wanted to convey his message that our dear friend and ALIFE colleague INMAN HARVEY recently passed away. Follow the link below to Seth's touching post on LinkedIn. #ALIFE

How do individual actions cascade into global movements? 🌐 The 14th Computational Social Science satellite bridges large-scale #data with models of #social phenomena! Join us at #CCS2026 to unpack emergent patterns, from peer production to #complex contagion. See you there!

The abstract deadline for the SUNY Symposium on Complex Systems Research and Education is approaching! (7/1) If you are working or studying at SUNY, please consider submitting your work here. Participation is free, and we have some travel support for SUNY students. sites.google.com/binghamton.e...

How do complex systems survive black-swan events? 🦢 Join the "Thriving in the Extremes" satellite at #CCS2026 to explore how agents navigate highly volatile environments. Discover groundbreaking frameworks bridging AI, cognitive modeling, and statistical physics. Don't miss out!

Traditional methods aren't always enough for social complexity. 👥 Discover qualitative, interacting, & mixing methods at our #CCS2026 Creative Methodologies satellite! Learn innovative approaches to researching complex social systems and enriching your analytical toolkit. 🧰

Sports aren't just games; they are highly dynamic, data-rich ecosystems! 🏅 At the Complexity and Sports satellite, we're applying #NetworkScience and #ComplexSystems theory to athletic performance and team dynamics. Ready to change the way you view the game? 🥅 #CCS2026

How adaptive systems evolve and develop from primitive life forms to modern AI? 🌌 Join the Evolutionary Development of Universal Complexity (EDU) satellite at #CCS2026. We will be exploring the fundamental evo-devo dynamics driving #emergence and self-organization at all scales!

I am pleased to announce that my submission to ALIFE 2026 has been accepted as a talk. Part of a larger collaboration on “inverse design” for multi-agent motion models, this EvoFlock side project uses a genetic algorithm to tune simulation parameters to meet a behavioral objective function. #ALife

At #NetSci26, @hirokisayama.bsky.social talks about location based (first order) and velocity based (second order) methods for control. Both work, which one is better depends on the presence of noise.
