LIFE! Want that program for to develop rational beings in a world of gliders and blocks.

It isn't the game of life actually, it's what happens when you make a Turing program that can traverse a grid in various dimensions and let it propagate (as opposed to checking for halts, it checks for new grids to enter), they make shit like highways, fractal-esque structures, and so forth.

Quite fascinating huh.

Langtons Ant:

Turing Machines need not be constrained to a tape. In 1985, Christopher Langton considered a Turing machine that would move around on a grid. The squares of the grid could change color, just like the tape. The moving head has a state and position, as before. Also, the direction is stored. In the simplest two cases, the moving head always changes the color of the underlying cell, and the state never changes. Also, whenever the underlying cell is turned from white to black, the direction turns to the right. In Langton's Ant, when the color changes from white to black, the direction turns to the left. In the Binary Counter, which seems to be my own discovery, the direction doesn't change.

assuming you are referring to Kilhart's it isn't showing up in his post, I had to quote and then go to the link just to see it. I assume the same case for quannum, and thus he was not aware it had been posted.

Okay, complaining about reposting the same image in the same thread is bad enough, but really? Complaining on the same page like 10 posts later? Really????
