Superlong vs Superskinny chemical tubes - are they alive?

[balzaish]

Interesting video. Alas it's not life: neither is the Briggs–Rauscher oscillating reaction, the growth of ice dendrite crystals on a window pane, nor the formation of complex micellar structures in a child's bubble bath. This is more of a simulacrum of life. But it does look very cool.

Yes, you can control the pattern.

[InSciJap]

How can you control the pattern?

[mikerycroft]

Now the big question, can you control the pattern of growth?
