The day was packed with interesting and diverse talks, and there's just too much to talk about in a single post. It's definitely worth searching around for other blog posts to see other's takes on the day!
The talk which I find myself thinking about the most was Charlotte Dann's. The journey from exploration in generative art to producing custom real-world jewelery was inspiring! It seems to have inspired others too, since it precipitated the creation of a creative coding meetup here in brighton, which I hope to find some time to get involved with.
In the spirit of that talk, here's a quick Conway's Game of Life demo (requires JavaScript to be enabled). It loops around (so the world looks square but it's really a torus). It's pretty basic! In the spirit of the talk, I hope to apply similar rules to different tilings. Refresh to restart.
