Rule 110

Created in Aug.2018

Rule 110 is a code-based generative music video I directed and programmed for the song produced by Max Cooper. The entire video is one continuous shot showing the gradual evolution of an elementary cellular automaton based on Rule 110.

In an elementary cellular automaton, a one-dimensional pattern of 0s and 1s evolves according to a simple set of rules. Whether a cell status will be 0 or 1 in the next generation depends on its current value, as well as on those of its two neighbors. Rule 110 has the following sets of rules: 111->0; 110->1; 101->1; 100->0; 011->1; 010->1; 001->1; 000->0.

All visual is programmed and generated using Processing.
