Can Fractals and 3D Game of Life Coexist?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around exploring the concept of Platonic shapes in 3D and their evolution through iterations. The user seeks resources or papers that combine 3D fractals with the Game of Life. They also inquire about saving creations from specific fractal and Game of Life websites. Additionally, there is interest in modeling the stock market using fractals, with a humorous acknowledgment of the complexities involved. A reference to Wolfram's "A New Kind of Science" is suggested as a starting point for further exploration into these topics. The conversation includes light-hearted remarks about the use of fractals in popular culture, such as in Star Wars.

HI all.
Just looking for some ideas or pointers. I wish to pass on an idea to a friend.
I want to look at Platonic shapes in 3D evolving through various iterations.

I've played with pretty fractals and I've played with the 2D and 3D Game of Life games.
both nice diversions :) on a rainy day.
Does anyone know of any papers or sites that have tried to combine the two?


Also. does anyone know how to save a creation in

and/or

Thanks all.

Ahhh I'm also looking for pointers. How can I model the stock market using Fractals? XD
 
Good luck with the stock market thing. :)
I try to stay away from stocks and bondage.

I'll look into Wolframs' book 'A new kind of Science'.
*shrug* - It's a place to start. I remember sampling it a few years ago when I was trying to learn matematica.

lol I was joking... I thought there's programs for 3D life fractals. They used fractals in star wars... lol
 
Similar to the 2024 thread, here I start the 2025 thread. As always it is getting increasingly difficult to predict, so I will make a list based on other article predictions. You can also leave your prediction here. Here are the predictions of 2024 that did not make it: Peter Shor, David Deutsch and all the rest of the quantum computing community (various sources) Pablo Jarrillo Herrero, Allan McDonald and Rafi Bistritzer for magic angle in twisted graphene (various sources) Christoph...
Thread 'My experience as a hostage'
I believe it was the summer of 2001 that I made a trip to Peru for my work. I was a private contractor doing automation engineering and programming for various companies, including Frito Lay. Frito had purchased a snack food plant near Lima, Peru, and sent me down to oversee the upgrades to the systems and the startup. Peru was still suffering the ills of a recent civil war and I knew it was dicey, but the money was too good to pass up. It was a long trip to Lima; about 14 hours of airtime...
