Doh! I’m such a dolt, watching the pretty pictures.
They’re both Turing complete, correct? Is there a natural sense of writing a program that, in that algorithmic representation, you know is somehow algorithmically deep in 110, which then becomes something algorithmically interesting under the corresponding representation in Life? If one did that, would all the constructions be so forced that it was tedious and not elucidating of anything? One is better to run “analog” and just relish the evident generative complexity?
