What can Conway's Game of Life teach us about pandeism?

0:40 the most monstrous of all Life patterns !!

@EmmetEarwax Yes it is!!

Great post. I was researching on this stuff as well and came across "Langton's ant" as well. Something like the Conway's cellular automata; generating patterns out of random and simple data rules..

The Mandelbrot Set is also similarly generated by application of a simple mathematical rule (I'll need to post something on that too) -- but it tells the same tale!! Though 3d Mandelbrots have been hard to generate, if either the Mandelbrot or Conway's Game of Life (or, to think amazingly, both somehow combined) were doable in three dimensions, we would surely see from similarly simple rules and forms, far greater complexity of outcomes, and even evolution!!

Very interesting! those rules were the begining of life.

Indeed!! And thank you for commenting....
