Institute for Advanced Studies at Lund University, Sweden. The aim of the project was to better understand how a second origin of life, either in the form of a discovery of extraterrestrial life, life developed in a laboratory, or machines equipped with abilities previously only ascribed to living beings, will change how we understand and relate to life. Because of the inherently interdisciplinary nature of the project aim, the project took an interdisciplinary approach with a research group made up of 12 senior researchers representing 12 different disciplines. The project resulted in a joint volume, an international symposium, several new projects, and a network of researchers in the field, all continuing to communicate about and advance the aim of the project. Keywords: Life; definition of life; extraterrestrial life;each other's perspectives on life, with a focus on expected inventions and discoveries of new kinds of life unrelated to us. The project organized regular visits from researchers from outside the group, with an interest in various perspectives on Life. These visiting researchers interacted with the group and gave seminars (either internal or open to a wider audience). The visiting researchers also became the core of a wider network that is still in operation. By focusing on the latest developments in areas such as synthetic biology, artificial intelligence, astrobiology, medicine, and robotics, as well as foreseeable future developments in these areas, we were able to formulate new questions and hypotheses that will be the basis of future projects.
