In the context of the workshop where this tutorial was conceived, we prepared three tracks to experiment further. They are much more ‘open-ended’ tutorials, with less guidance.
If you implement cool stuff and get cool videos/images, please send us a sample to the e-mails listed above!
Abstract : The most open-ended track. You are free to implement your own Automaton. We give you pointers to existing Alife models, and you can directly implement one of these, or get inspired to make your own.
Track 1 : Implement and explore Artificial Worlds
Abstract : This track is focused around understanding the how the Lenia automaton works, and modifying to create space-varying simulations. It begins by a descriptions of the Lenia automaton, where you will learn how each of the many parameters interact to create the simulations you can see of MultiLenia. After that, the challenge will be to modify the MultiLenia Automaton to use several parameters at once. The goal will be to try and mix these parameters according to the location of each pixel. Hopefully, this should generate more varied simulations than the one you can see in MultiLenia!
