Brain 6 is a cellular automaton and one of the best-known Generations rules created by Michael Sweney. It is similar to Brian's Brain, though slightly different; dead cells get born if they have two, four or six live neighbors, and live cells survive only if they have exactly six live neighbors, and similar to Brain's Brain, live cells advance to a third state, not considered "live" for the purpose of cell birth, before dying.
