Self-organization experiments in discrete approximations of complex continuous systems

Checkout the project page for an outline of the project, links to code illustrating discretization effects on Scutium gravidus and Orbium Lenia gliders, and preliminary results (animations).

Quick setup

This repo uses the yuca cellular automata simulator.

To get started you can clone this repo and run clone_install.sh from within your virtual environment. This will install yuca.

git clone https://github.com/riveSunder/DisContinuous.git disco
cd disco

virtualenv disco_env --python=python3.8
source disco_env/bin/activate

sh clone_install.sh

# try and run yuca tests
python -m testing.test_all

Afterward you should be able to run the Notebook. But you can also try it on: mybinder -> , or colab ->
