MonochromeEvolutionaryBioDigitalCellularAutomataSimulation
Unlike the recently shared[1] multi-cellular struggles, these here are some selected research stills (handpicked from tens of thousands) of only single CA configurations (aka mono-cultures) which I found interesting/promising and which were then used as raw ingredients/candidates for my infinitely evolving C-SCAPE project[2]...
Each of these cellular automata is 1.5D, meaning each pixel row is one generation, but I allowed the neighborhoods to be flexible, larger (potentially discontinuous), and in some cases extended to enable access to cell states in previous generations (i.e. a form of temporal short term memory). This leads to all sorts of much more interesting and complex outcomes than "traditional" (aka textbook) 1-dimensional CA setups...

Strandbeest evolution 2025

...and obligatory re-sharing of some pics of our joint generative design workshop in 2013, incl. Theo's graveyard of older Strandbeests and mechanisms:

Also remembering that already back then he was very worried about the manufacturer discontinuing the specific pipes used as raw materials for these creatures and therefore bought several kilometers of piping as reserve in advance, to future proof his project and not having to potentially recalculate/recalibrate all the designs...

This week I've been rewriting (in Zig) the position-based dynamics & cellular-automata engines used for the cloth sim in my #DANZA art project (check the hashtag for older WIP)... Still endless tweaking, but could already stare at this beauty for hours, literally!
(And of course, I'm also again "dogfooding" http://thi.ng/genart-api for defining/handling parameters and animation timing...)

Today's Mathtober prompt is "Wheel", which reminded me of a color wheel. So I went with a ring of penguins in rainbow colors for today's drawing.
I liked how it turned out, so I drew a few on watercolor paper. I might put these in my online shop: ArtAtomic.io.
As usual, I've shared it for my supporters on Patreon and Ko-fi:

In today's #inkyDays drawing, I went with a calming (for me) floral pattern. I also made progress of a large piece I've been working on for months. It's so close to being finished. So, I have to be extra careful when working on it.

Shame on me but I had to do the photo
Plot plot plot
A lot of people asked if they also could get the digital image. Now I'm thinking about extending my setup to stick a NFC sticker on the back of the plot that links to a nice digital representation of the plot 🤔

#SciArtSeptember Day 17: "Vector".
I'm thinking more along the lines of disease vectors. So, of course, I'm going with networked mosquitos in today's drawing.
For this month, I'm sharing in-progress and finished #inkyDays drawings in public posts on my Patreon and Ko-fi: https://www.patreon.com/posts/137994342

#SciArtSeptember Day 16: "Chaos"
In today's #inkyDays, I'm drawing a messy implementation of a cellular automata, using rule 30.
Did I make mistakes? Of course I did! That's part of the fun in doing this!
