Our team worked on an "artistic demo" for an expensive VR-cave environment that the city of Rotterdam sponsored for a bioinformatics dept in local university and while working on the application it kept on locking up and had to often be forcibly closed over ssh. We called the binary life so we could force-close it with a command killall life. The demo itself was about traveling inside living cells and watching their parts fly around, so the name was actually fitting.

For a demo about life, that's quite dark! Admittedly, I guess it really did kill everything in the demo. Sounds like a cool project to work on though!
