When John von Neumann gave his lecture on ‘General and Logical Theory of Automata’ in 1948 his ideas were met with some scepticism. The suggestion that life is a logical process which could result in making a new kind of creature, was the forerunner of all our discussions on whether ‘artificial life’ was at all possible.
