Title: Smooth life Post by: s31415 on February 16, 2013, 10:32:20 AM Hi,
Not really a topic about fractals, but there is an interesting continuous version of Conway's game of life. You can see many videos here: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL69EDA11384365494 including 3d versions. A program can be downloaded here (I haven't tried it yet): http://sourceforge.net/projects/smoothlife/ and the paper explaining what's going on is here: http://arxiv.org/abs/1111.1567 This video is the cutest: https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=KJe9H6qS82I Sam Title: Re: Smooth life Post by: Kali on February 16, 2013, 06:04:29 PM Very nice... now, this really looks like life... at least at a microscopic level.
