b'Guest: Dr. Stuart Bartlett \\n\\nCaltech astrobiologist and complexity scientist Dr. Stuart Bartlett joins us to discuss the relationship between complex systems and life, a novel way to assess planetary complexity, and how this technique may one day help us look for new life and new civilizations.\\n\\nStuart\'s paper, "Assessing planetary complexity and potential agnostic biosignatures using epsilon machines": https://www.nature.com/articles/s41550-021-01559-x\\n\\n"Bleeding edge tech could help us find unusual alien life" by Charles Q. Choi for Inverse: https://www.inverse.com/science/epsilon-machines-alien-life\\n\\nFollow Mike on Twitter: https://twitter.com/Miquai'
