Yoel Matveyev is a Russian science fiction writer, poet, software developer and a cellular automata enthusiast. In 2021 he released[1] the largest known cellular automation computer called Izhora based on his own 4-state rule FireWorld. It has 256 kilobytes of memory, a 256x128 memory-mapped pixel display and a keyboard driven by a script. Its 32-bit CPU uses a single operation, subtract and branch if zero or negative (SUBLEQ), from which all other operations can be synthesized. Examples include 256-bit factorials, primes and Fibonacci numbers. Tools such as an assembler and emulator are provided for programming it.

Matveyev is also notable for proving Turing completeness of Brian's Brain in 2020 [2] and for investigating multistate cyclical rules, which can be viewed as generalizing the notion of self-complementarity. In multistate cyclic rules every pattern behaves exactly the same, if the states of all live cells are cyclically changed to one another, e.g. 1->2,2->3,3->1[3].
