Read the Wikipedia article on rule 110, it gives a very general outline of the universality proof. You can use rule 110 to produce a cyclic tag system.
@RandyLahey911 Yes, but each type of Triangle can represent one bit, like a computer, I strongly recommend you read "A New Kind of Science" by Wolfram, its about 900 pages but it is written so you do not need a math background. I read most of it when I was in seventh grade.
can emulate any computer? So, what do you have to do to make it calculate... 2+2 ?

How does the pattern emulate or copy a computer?

@RandyLahey911 This rule an emulate a "Turing machine" which can in turn emulate any type of computer.

@MathDemos How? Looks like some triangles to me.
