  • @bobkart (... search for 'rabbits' at conwaylife(dot)com/wiki, YouTube won't let me post the actual URL)

  • @42DuckyDuckers It's a Java program that I wrote. It generates a BMP file fore each egeneration, then I use another program i wrote to assemble the series of BMP files into an uncompressed AVI video. Then I add audio and compress using TMPGEnc (Tsunami MPEG Encoder).

    The seed is called the Rabbits, a so-called Methuselah Pattern due its long life (nearly 18,000 generations). A description of the Rabbits can be found here:

  • What kind of program did you use to get it this fast?

    ...Or did you just use a regular program, and speed it up?

    This is really awesome!

    (I've written a game of life program of my own, but I never thought of using colors...)

    Also, could you give a clear view of the seed?
