A demo of artificial life
Part 1
Part 2

Well, life in the next 2000 years (oops! steps) is roughly the same as in the first 2000 steps, but loops can grow bigger much easier now due to more leftover mutational factor (not shown on the pictures). Therefore, we can see some really big loops here.

This simulation can continue for a very long time without stopping or repeating itself. We really don't know how long this simulation can go on, but we are already running out of disk space for storing these screen dump figures. If you are interested in seeing beyond these demos and/or what a bigger simulated space can produce, you are welcome to download the simulation software Trend and try a couple simulations yourself, possibly with your own different parameters.

Comments and questions are welcome. Please direct your mail to me.
