Cellfie

The cells take a picture of themselves, and aityx says who’s in it.

Overview

Conway’s Game of Life on an infinite board, with the rules of birth and death (Conway’s, HighLife’s and Life without death, as switches) and a catalogue of its patterns, as an aityx decision model: one aityx call per generation names what lives, what dies and which clusters are blocks, gliders or pulsars, with the request and the response in a side panel.

Steps

  1. Pick a Random start: a soup, islands, a glider fleet, a zoo with one of each pattern, a glider gun, or a methuselah.
  2. Press Play and set the Acceleration, up to as fast as aityx answers.
  3. Watch the patterns aityx names, labelled on the board as they appear.
  4. Switch on HighLife or Life without death from Rules, and read every call in the side panel.
