#r133r

[electroblanziflor]

A study of ethers and “materials” in rule 133R. Ethers are periodic patterns. Materials is my terminology for the different possible configurations of the automaton’s “neighborhood”, to which I assigned different colors. In this rule, the “rare material” represented by gold makes patterns that stand in stark contrast to its surroundings.

A typical scene in rule 133R. Notice the complexity and variety of the phenomenology as it transitions from order to chaos.
