ArchaeaBot is a prototype of an underwater robotic installation that explores what ‘life’ might mean in a post-singularity and a post-climate changed future. Based on new research on archaea (a group of unicellular micro-organisms believed to be the oldest form of life on earth adapted to life in extreme conditions) and combined with the latest innovations in artificial intelligence and machine learning, the artists have tried to create the 'ultimate' species for the end of the world. The work is the result of collaboration with researcher/cryomicroscopist Amanda Wilson within the framework of the EU MARA project, which is based at Imperial College. Additionally the artists are collaborating with Daniel Polani, Professor of Artificial Intelligence in the School of Computer Science at the University of Hertfordshire.
