These creatures are made with an IFS which transform one arc into several connected arcs (specifically 1/6 of circumference, which gives more possibilities than other fractions). I show the results of just two iterations for several decompositions, more produces less aesthetic outcomes, and even more the result is indistinguishable from usual fractals. In this post the shapes are derived from a full circumference, next post will include other outcomes derived from other initial shapes (composed by sixths of circumferences).

My contribution to this week's #WCCChallenge: GOLly dish

openprocessing.org/sketch/2609

The "dish" is a circle filled with a hex grid of dots that follow the game of life rules and so "live" when they have two living neighbours and otherwise die; the color of a dot depicts the number of life circles.

(Inspired by "Petri Dish" by K Mc Guiness.)

Edit: If you can, use a pc for watching the animation; js appears to be a little too slow on a mobile browser..
