Our Nature of Code final project is about as abstract as you can get, with the option to leverage just about any and all sides of the various phenomena. What's more, the visualization (or lack thereof) is also completely open ended. In short, we were asked to look at the huge amount of material covered this semester, and get inspired.
For me, that meant childhood video games - Specifically, Tetris. While reading this article on Conway's Game Of Life, I was struck by how similar the cellular shapes were to Tetris pieces. This got me thinking as to whether there might be a way to combine the two into a video game that yielded novel game play, driven by cellular automata.
While I'm still fleshing out the idea, you can check out my thoughts so far in the proposal below.
