I've spent the past year creating a cozy science experience called /r/ScaleSpace and as I improve fidelity, more and more lifelike things are emerging.
If you don't know how cellular automata is traditionally programmed, you would typically program particles to behave agentically with attraction and repulsion rules that interact with each other.
In this case we have dumb particles that don't know anything about each other and all of the emergence occurs through environmental conditions (like it does in our universe).
Recently I saw things that I almost can't put into words. Happy to answer any questions you have about this and I'll do my best, but I'm sharing this here because it's right on the border of what I can explain.
Tech: webgpu and threejs.
My background: 20 years in systems design (ux and game design)
