ISAL is a democratic, international, professional society dedicated to promoting scientific research and education relatingto artificial life, including sponsoring conferences, publishing scientific journals and newsletters, and maintaining web sites related to artificial life. Artificial Life (published by MIT Press) is the official journal of ISAL, and the biannual International Conference on Artificial Life is the official scientific gathering of the Society.

His web site has some good stuff on artificial life and related things. In his own words: "Computer modeling of life-like complex behavior is my main area of interest. I write software to simulate various types of human and animal behavior, mostly related to an autonomous character's motion around its simulated world. In addition to some pure research, my work involves applying these models to production of feature films and these days, games. I am also interested in using evolutionary computation to design procedural models, such as behavioral controllers, according to aesthetic criteria."
