Fellow hackers,

tomorrow, Tuesday, 27 June, Arachnia will introduce us to the Game of
Life:

https://www.meetup.com/dimsumlabs/events/294305467/

The Game of Life, also known simply as Life, is a cellular automaton
devised by the British mathematician John Horton Conway in 1970. The
“game” is a zero-player game, meaning that its evolution is determined
by its initial state, requiring no further input. The universe of the
Game of Life is an infinite two-dimensional orthogonal grid of square
cells, each of which is in one of two possible states, alive or dead, or
“populated” or “unpopulated”. Every cell interacts with its eight
neighbours, which are the cells that are horizontally, vertically, or
diagonally adjacent. At each step in time, the following transitions
occur.

Doors open at 7 pm. The presentation starts at 8 pm. There will be
drinks and friendly people from all walks of art and technology.

Felix
