Lab^{( β )}

Conway's cellular automaton. Draw cells, load a preset, or seed randomly. Watch chaos or structure emerge.

Wolfram's 256 elementary rules explorer. Change the rule, seed the row, adjust generations.

Craig Reynolds' flocking model. Three local rules: separation, alignment, cohesion. They produce emergent swarm behaviour.

Two rules on a grid produce ~10,000 steps of apparent chaos. Then, without warning, a perfect diagonal highway, forever.
