Thanks for the compliment. This project was inspired by Ventrella's Clusters (the link is in the descriptions). Once I wrote the code, I spent the entire month trying to make the code as concise as possible and as educational as possible. Hopefully, this presentation inspires more work on investigating emergent patterns from very simple rules.

@@Mushele This is far closer to representing emergent life coming from simple rules than Conway's Game Of Life. I absolutely love Game Of Life, but this looks like what one sees from microscopes. Cells consuming other cells, cells losing their cell wall and leaking their insides, cells that are highly active, other cells that are mostly stagnant, etc.

I wonder how much more emerges if we make the rule coefficients a function of a common parameter (we can call it "temperature"), then have that variable go through a "day cycle" of sin(t). This might make some of the very unstable/twitchy patterns more stable for a bit, and vice-versa. Or make t itself a function of (x,y) and make warm/cool pockets with different stable patterns, swapping particles between them. Lots of neat stuff to play with here, thanks for sharing it!

@@AlissonNunes Not dumb, but I do think you're taking the model a little too literally (which his presentation kind of encouraged). This model is too simple to capture anything like that level of detail. It gives us big picture, super hand-wave-y patterns, which is neat, and helps guide one's thinking for more fine-grained problems. This is why I said "call it" temperature: it's a kinda-sorta analogue for temperature within the very coarse-grained model we're using. Honestly, my motivation is entirely to make it fun to watch for longer. It's a bummer that each model stabilizes to a static state, though. I'm mostly interested in finding ways to make it visually interesting for longer spans of time =)

While Conway's Game of Life has been impressive for a long time, the striking part of this adaptation is the organic way the movement, shapes, and patterns appear. There are a number of ways to use this approach to visualize concepts about chaos, probability, prediction, and determinism in systems. The first-principles development approach to set it apart from similar programs is the cherry on top. It looks great!

This is one of the coolest things I have seen in a while.

1/d instead of 1/d^2 is actually more accurate for a 2D world. Force fields are observed to conserve a flux, (number of field lines does not change). Inverse square law is a byproduct of having 3 spatial dimensions, force fields disperse as a surface (e.g. a sphere) which scales quadratically with radius. In a 2D universe force fields disperse as a line (e.g. a circle) which increases linearly with radius.

Wow this is really incredible. I have always been fascinated by life-simulation programs after I first saw Game Of Life. But I never saw one where the emerging forms and behaviors resulted in such a beautiful diversity. Really, you came close to the secret of life itself...

This video is profound and I will be using it in my discussions about the nature of the universe. I hear many people claim that complex multicellular life cannot come from simple rules without intervention. This program demonstrates very well that simple particles with simple rules can make things that look like complex organic cells. Limiting yourself to attraction and repulsion was a good decision, because they are very simple rules that can be related to the Fundamental Forces like Gravity and Electromagnetism which most people are familiar with. I think abiogenesis is not as unlikely as some would claim, and we are always finding experiments and demonstrations like this that chip away at proving that it's possible and probable.

The rules are not simple. There's a lot of things that needed to happen before these 'simple' rules were written. Like the intelligence of the mind required sit down and write it, and all the technological developments nessesary before you can even type the first keystroke of code etc etc. Also. These examples are very chaotic unstable and unpredictable, which is a very different situation than the world we actually live in. With enough tweaking of the settings and variables eventually you might find something more akin to the behavior of life or particle physics as we would recognize in the universe, but at that point the simplicity suggested here is no longer simple. I love this project because it really does get you thinking about the fundamental nature of things.

Amazing work! It'd be a million times better if combine this with evolution-like process. What I can think of: 1. Add a new type of object, let's call it "nucleus" 2. Genetic information: Each nucleus stores the information of formation of particles in polar coordinates to it. e.g. red: [ [1, 90], [2, 45] ], blue: [ [2, 60] ] Each will be spawned surrounded by other particles arranged according to the gene. 3. Metabolism: Each time there's another type particle that is close enough to a nucleus, it will "eat" it and increment a counter of that particle inside it. e.g. red++. 4. Reproduction: When there's enough particles eaten to satisfy the number of particles of each type needed for the genetic code e.g. red == 2, blue == 1, another one of this nucleus will be spawned elsewhere 5. Mutation: For each reproduction process, there's a chance of a small change in the genetic code. 6. Death: Each time a particle that a nucleus "owns" is eaten or gone too far, the HP of that nucleus is reduced. If it's 0, the nucleus dies. 7. Growth: The genetic information can be split into stages and the nucleus will need to consume enough particles to go to its next stage. It means the consumed particles will be respawned around the nucleus based on the next stage's gene. Reproduction will be done after the last stage is reached.

This is a nice expansion of particle life simulations I knew I had seen long ago. After some digging, "particle life" seems to be the key search term. The first version in this vein appears to be from 2016, but the rules were simplified to be more like we see here in videos around 2018.

This is just beautiful. I am amazed by your work. This is so pure , elegant.. i admire you!

This is cool! I typed in the js code, tweaked it a little*, and made a fish! :D (I wasn't setting out to make a fish, but that's what it looks like to me.) * added two parameters to rule(), one is the maximum distance for interaction (80 by default, as in your code), and the other is an option to do 1/d² instead of 1/d. Also a few other tweaks, but I think those are the most noteworthy. The rest was just playing with rules.

Some of the instabilities could be a result of simulating in discrete domain. Different sample time: if you multiply all the forces by 0.5, record the simulation and play it at 2x speed, the results with fast moving particles (e.g. instabilities) will be different. There are also continues domain solvers, but understandably that would make it not very approachable.

Wow. The video was not just a programming demo but a story in and of itself!

It is amazing that many people see this and say we had evolved from non-living things. In your simulation you have shown us that there are many possible configurations. Some resulting in seemingly stable formations, and others resulting chaos( I think this is the case for the most part). Clearly, your simulation needs a "fine tuner", not to mention a programmer😁, in order to get to the most organized state of the simulation. This demonstrates that this simulation is not an example of self organization. It demonstrates that any organized information, in order to raise, requires a mind. PSALM14:1

Yooo this is amazing! I've seen a couple simulations like this in the past (eg. by "Particle Life" by Code Parade) but this is far more complex than what I saw so far. Good job!

That is to say, Unity has something like C between it and the machine code. Generally, the more user-friendliness you have, the less efficient the physical machine (CPU) is given instructions.

This is without much optimisations (no WebGL shaders, just Canvas and purely running on the CPU). Unity is first of all, not a programming language, but an engine. Secondly, any language can be slow if you don't know about pitfalls that are usually general to every language; i.e. allocating within a deeply nested loop can be very slow if not cached or managed properly. Doesn't matter whether you write Rust, C++, C or even Assembly. The important part is to understand those pitfalls and how to use the language to avoid them. C#'s runtime (CLR) is fast and is used in many applications, more complex than this. Not only that but your C# code is also heavily optimized through Roslyn before being translated into MSIL/CIL and then to machine code by the JIT compiler.
