When I was in high school, someone gave me a photocopy of an article from OMNI magazine.  It was an interview with Chris Langton about artificial life.  I think I have been fascinated with these same twinkling lights ever since.  It was pretty inspiring for me,  having grown up in Santa Fe myself, it was so cool to see someone I could aspire to -- who could also be living in Santa Fe.

I finally found the reference... it was an interview by Steven Levy titled "It's Alive" in 1991 but without a subscription to Rolling Stone, I can't access their archives directly.   At least I'm not *crazy* (in that particular way).  I'm surprised how obscure the article went.
