Timothy Jackson and Mike Levin, meeting 1
Timothy Jackson and Michael Levin discuss how evolutionary and clinical toxinology connect to chemical ecology, psychedelics, and diverse intelligences, outlining a project on using toxins and psychoactive molecules to influence development and healing.
Conversations and working meetings
"A bioelectric interface to the collective intelligence of agential materials for bioengineering"
Michael Levin outlines how bioelectric networks in cells enable agential materials, regeneration, and morphological control, discussing cellular competencies, morphospace, cancer, xenobots, anthrobots, and future biomedical applications.
Michael Levin's talks
Karl Friston, Adam Goldstein, and Michael Levin discuss active inference and algorithms
Karl Friston, Adam Goldstein, and Michael Levin explore how active inference and free energy ideas illuminate surprising behavior in sorting algorithms, covering distributed intelligence, clustering, teleology, and hidden goals.
Conversations and working meetings
Mark Solms and Michael Levin discuss explicit and implicit behavioral drives
Mark Solms joins Michael Levin to explore how algorithmic behavior in simple systems relates to explicit and implicit cognition, delayed gratification, emergent clustering, and basal cognition in living agents.
Conversations and working meetings
Discussion with Stuart Kauffman and Katherine Peil Kauffman
Stuart Kauffman and Katherine Peil Kauffman join a one-hour discussion on emergent cognition, emotion and bioelectricity, bottom-up collective intelligence, and Kantian wholes. They relate these ideas to self-construction, information, and bioelectric selves.
Conversations and working meetings
Bioelectricity, Biobots, and the Future of Biology
Michael Levin presents a 30-minute overview of bioelectricity, cellular intelligence, and morphogenesis, discussing anatomical compilers, pattern memories, regeneration, cancer control, and xenobots as a path toward new biotechnologies and synthetic life forms.
Michael Levin's talks
Bioelectricity as Cognitive Glue: from Diverse Intelligence to Regenerative Medicine (~1 hour talk)
Michael Levin discusses how bioelectric signals organize cellular collective intelligence and morphogenesis, implications for diverse forms of cognition, plant and AI goals, and applications to cancer and regenerative medicine.
Michael Levin's talks
Conversation between Adam Omary, Roy Baumeister, and Michael Levin
Adam Omary talks with Roy Baumeister and Michael Levin about collective intelligence, self-organization, and how emergent group minds and multi-scale order may inform understanding of social and economic systems.
Conversations and working meetings
A 1 hour lecture on bioelectricity for a department of parasitology/immunology by Michael Levin
Michael Levin gives a 1-hour lecture on bioelectricity for parasitology and immunology researchers, covering anatomical goals and morphospace, bioelectric pattern control, regeneration, bioelectric medicine, and links between self, cancer, and bioelectricity.
Michael Levin's talks
Conversation #2 between Chris Fields, Richard Watson, and Mike Levin
Chris Fields, Richard Watson, and Mike Levin explore how gene regulatory networks store memory in trained yet static pathways and what this reveals about learning and mind-reading technologies. They discuss attractor dynamics, semantic ambiguity, embodiment, and limits of decoding internal states.
Conversations and working meetings
Bioelectricity as the Software of Life: from cognitive glue to regenerative medicine
Michael Levin presents bioelectricity as the software of life, describing how cell networks store anatomical memories, guide regeneration, influence cancer, and enable technologies like xenobots, with implications for intelligence, morphogenesis, and ethics.
