Wow, that is so cool! I’ve fiddled with Conways game of life a lot, implementing it recursively in SQLite, various languages, explored variations of it; I knew you could simulate it inside the game, but this is mind blowingly cool! And it’s so smoothly done, it’s like stepping through the looking glass.
Yeah, that’s insane. (For the initiated, make sure to zoom in and out).
I had seen the one layer before, but they way they get it to go forever and make it work so smoothly by dynamically adjusting the speed is pure genius!
The zoom out is just chef's kiss
I would like to check later on if the rules for this "cellular automata" (if it is one) are documented and the fractal nature naturally concludes from it or whether the fractal was simply manually forced when you zoom a certain level.
I’m pretty sure it’s manually forced, but I would be delighted to be educated otherwise.
Hmm, just says Loading and not actually loading for me on my phone.
Me too
Same on Brave, shields down makes it work
This little app makes me feel, perhaps more than I ever have before, that CA might be what's under the hood of the whole universe. (Not a Wolfram fanboy, just reporting on a new sense of awe and mystery!)
the Bell Inequality is one of the things that really puts a damper in that idea. It's like OK everything is local with a speed limit, but there is a little but of superluminal stuff it's just not actually useful in any way except to wet blanket ideas like this.
That is really amazing.
that is crazy trippy in a fractal-y kind of way. very smart.
