Featured, Picture of the day on the English Wikipedia for November 5, 2010 A racetrack in which a glider moves around, bouncing off reflectors and spaceships and triggering guns. In the image guns are green, gliders are yellow, spaceships are red, reflectors are violet, gobblers and other live cells are blue.
Computer simulation of the Belousov–Zhabotinsky reaction occurring in a Petri dish.
Animation of two dimensional cyclical cellular automaton growing to repeating patterns from a random beginning.
Roughly 4000 bits of data in a curled up "tape" constructing a complex pattern. This uses a slightly different 32-state algorithm called Hutton32.
The die hard Methuselah lives for 130 generations before all cells die.
Orthogonal spaceships in Conway's Game of Life of varying speeds. Note some spaceships “overtake” others due to speed differences.
Puffer train.
Selection of rakes.
Breeder.
Spacefiller showing the moving leading edges and the stationary still life it leaves.
A typical chaotic "exploding" pattern in Seeds running for 140 generations.
A typical chaotic Brian's Brain pattern showing spaceships, rakes and diagonal waves.
Life without Death pattern creating ladders. More info.
Example of a complicated circuit made in WireWorld: a seven segment display and decoder. Conductor cells are dark green to highlight signal flow and display segments.
Evolution of Langton's ant.
The evolution of the HighLife replicator.
Gun and antigun demonstrating the symmetric nature of Day & Night.
Animated creation of a Sierpinski triangle using rule 90.
HPP simulation of gas flow inside a closed space.
Animation of a lattice gas automaton showing the complex non-linear behavior of four gas molecules inside a closed space. The yellow cells are reflectors.
Scanline flood fill. Each line starts at the centre and moves left through the same-coloured region, then right. The algorithm moves up first, then down in a recursive fashion to fill in the area.
Example of how a Lissajous curve dramatically changes as the ratio a/b changes.
Computer generated harmonograph figure. Emulates a harmonograph with two pendulums that are fixed (only move along one axis, not an ellipse) drawing on a piece of paper following a dampened circle.
The logistic map for 100 generations as r moves from 0 to 4.
Featured Mandelbrot zoom animation.
