5:09 - What parameters were used to create this? It looks just like the motion of grain boundaries (mean curvature flow with junctions). See e.g. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qGXHc6d8bLmVipI

[@d3nt391]

There's different rules for multiple neighborhoods, meaning that sometimes a rule will be applied, and then overwritten by the next neighborhood. The amount of neighborhoods + neighborhood shape + neighborhood sizes + thresholds for birth and death are all changeable parameters as well.

[@kingfisher1638]

Do you ever test how they interact with blockers or exclusion zones? what about multiple types in a neighborhood? fascinating stuff

[@52.yusrilihsanadinatanegar79]

I mean, if real "life" shows up, they could be interested or curios i guess?

[@Slackermanz]

I've done tests with that, and it really all depends on how the blockers are programmed to interact with the patterns' energy distributions. Eg, if the blockers remove energy, the patterns might either bounce off or avoid them, but sometimes they get stuck like glue (which might happen in the case where they have "excess" energy to get rid of)

excellent choice of music

[@AtlasReburdened]

Why does everyone insist on uploading only a few seconds of each parameter set? Have you ever heard an otherwise flowing orchestral piece where every few seconds someone throws down a huge pane of glass? _Yeah, I wonder why not..._

[@anywallsocket]

How bout u do it then?? and stop complaining about free inspirational content u twat??

[@sifo4639]

Some kind soul should upload longer ones. The program to do it is free. You just gotta figure out how it works.

[@Softology]

@@sifo4639 1. Start Visions of Chaos 2. Select Mode->OpenGL Shading Language->Shader Editor 3. Check the "Create movie frames" checkbox 4. Click Open 5. Select any of the samples starting with "Cellular Automata MNCA" 6. Let it run for as many frames as you want it to (watch the status bar for how long the movie will be) 7. Click Stop toolbar button to stop when you have enough frames 8. Click Build button on the Build Movie Settings dialog 9. Once built the movie will show in your default movie player Repeat steps 4 to 9 for any other sample files and then join them together into one single movie file by selecting Movies->Join Multiple Movie Files

very cool visual animation. and the music is very calming.

Nice!! I can see I have missed a lot in the last year. Family crap basically deleted an entire year from my life but I am motivated to get back into the fun stuff again! Great work!

Could you model /mimic polymerization such as the mixing of two different chemicals (like when stirred ) to make a Crystal or a resin

[@marcodiegocambronerovillal7647]

This is precisely what I was thinking, if it was possible that is

[@mr1enrollment]

If you get close to an old black and white TV which is tuned off channel, and stare at it for a few minuets - you get very similar effect. ;-}

rip yt compress algorithm

[@Softology]

Is mentioning the KZbin compression algorithm the new "1 person missed the like button" comment? Seems as if only recently I get these compression comments. If you are serious, then as always, watch the video in the highest available quality. At 4K resolution this is pixel perfect without any compression blockiness.
