==The Research | |||
My interest in the game of life as well as the cellular automata lies in it 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's process of the fabric. | My interest in the game of life as well as the cellular automata lies in it well determined set of rules that nevertheless, leads quickly to an unpredictable outcome, when the button start is pushed.

The second braiding was done with 20 threads of the 4 colors i used for the previous braiding. In this way, i could keep the previous rules i was now used to, in order to be more efficient. I also decided the positions of each colors to, at least inicialy, separate the knoting configuration for the twisting one, to attempt to create a more fluid braiding. | ||
