The CA Appreciation Society is the one thread on these forums where the beauty comes first. You can come here to admire rules for their beauty and glory and not be distracted by that glider synthesis work you're doing on this thread or whatever.
Feel free to contribute your own patterns.
Lemme start with something so this thread has a faster start:
Assimilation (B345/4567) is a rule without a chance to be Turing-complete or whatever due to its birth conditions. But let us not judge rules by what they can change, let us see how beautiful they can be still. Indeed, you can take a look here at what beautiful patterns appear here from unsightly scribbles:
Code: Select all
x = 393, y = 315, rule = B345/S4567
