Re: Emergent Self-Replicating Systems

It also seems that FT would also detect oscillators and spaceships if they had periodic variation in their population; a LWSS or a beacon for example? And what FT would make of natural puffers seems less obvious… Yes, the FT definitely detects oscillators and spaceships because of their periodic na...

Emergent Self-Replicating Systems

I've discovered many 2- and 3-state cellular automata systems which generate emergent self-replicating creatures from a random field of cells. Check it out at http://stm1968.tripod.com/fourierlife/index.htm . Has anyone described these types of systems before? I also developed an algorithm using Fou...
