My interest about the game of life as well as the cellular automata lies in a well determined set of rules that nevertheless, leads quickly to an unpredictable outcome, when the button start is pushed. I wonder if a textile technique may provide the same result. In theory, it may not, in the final result, as the final fabric is still and can't evolve, however, I would like to experiment a set of rules that would influence the creation of the fabric during the process. | |||
For this mean, I chose to experiment this research on the braiding technique that we already experimented during the courses. Hand braiding offered me a two dimensional freedom, where I could experiment with my own hands different way to make interactions between the ropes. On the other hand, this technique also has the disadvantage to be only bi-directional unlike the Conway's Game of life. | |||

This research aims to transcript in a braiding technique the rules and evolutions of a Conway's Game of life. As the set rules are simply decided, the used playing with the game of life may not be able to fully predict the outcome of its game. In the same way, I would like to create some braiding rules that would be likely to create a different pattern based on different initial rules. | |||
