Ahouxt.179 net.general utcsrgv!utzoo!decvax!ucbvax!ihnss!houxi!houxt!4341jhf Thu Feb 18 19:37:43 1982 Cellular Automata anyone? Anyone on the net have a past, present, or possibly future interest in Cellular Automatas? Or better yet, experience with cellular automatas, or cellular automata hardware!?? I'm something of a nut on them for a variety of reasons (most of which are not particularly practical). For several years, I have been playing with a hardware system which I built at home. This system runs LIFE and quite a number of cellular automata games at 30 generations per second on a CRT with a 64 by 64 space. If anybody out there has an interest let me know. (Anybody at MIT can tell me how the hell a glider gun was created??) In case you are interested, I posted a separate article titled "Me and the Cellular Automata" in net.misc which describes how I got interested in cellular automata and briefly lists the capabilities of my machine and what I'm up to. Hope to hear from someone, John Fikus (houxt!4341jhf) BTL FJ 1F105 x5222 ----------------------------------------------------------------- gopher://quux.org/ conversion by John Goerzen of http://communication.ucsd.edu/A-News/ This Usenet Oldnews Archive article may be copied and distributed freely, provided: 1.
