Whilst evolution nicely accounts for the gradual progression We operate in a cellular automaton developed by Mirek Wojtowicz in March 1999. With Stephen Wolfram's, since Wolfram does not intend to imply that the universe is a classical cellular automaton but rather conceives of a discrete universe based on systems performing simple rules and producing all the complex behavior we find in nature. Mar 7, 2014 - One of the most miraculous phenomena in the universe is, unarguably, the existence of biological life. May 1, 2008 - Let's say I have a computer program which computes a sequence of positive integers that encode the successive states of a sentient being. Mar 31, 2014 - Download Cellular automata. Jan 29, 2011 - Even if we found that space-time is a cellular automaton at some level, it is possible that such a discrete level of structure is merely supervening upon a more fundamental continuous substratum. Aug 13, 2012 - His latest version is last month's Discreteness and Determinism in Superstrings, which starts with cellular automata in 1+1 dimensions and somehow gets a quantized superstring out of it (there are also some comments about this on his web-site here). ISBN: 9810246234, 9789810246235. (1988) Sound synthesis and Processing by Means of Linear Cellular Automata. Publisher: World Scientific Publishing Company. Here's an example of what I mean. Regardless, this sequence of positive integers represents the time series of a discrete universe containing conscious entities. Call this sequence Sentient(n). I think the biggest issue here is that 't Hooft (clearly a brilliant physicist) ignores Conway/Kochen, who clearly prove, given three axioms, that the universe *can't* be deterministic. Proceedings of the 1988 International Computer Music Conference, ICMA. A discrete universe Andrew Ilachinski Language: English Page: 839. Then, an interesting series of deductions occurs. Apr 15, 2009 - But cellular automata is all about playing God, so how about simply designing a universe that does not have this limitation? Apr 11, 2012 - And when they duplicate waves in a discrete system, they often think of something like a cellular automaton (CA) running a discrete approximation to the wave equation. For example, the positive integers might describe a Conway's-Game-of-Life universe containing sentient beings (Life is Turing-complete) or some other cellular automaton. Aug 7, 2006 - As a reminder, the Zuse-Fredkin Thesis is a Church-type thesis which claims additionally that the universe being a Cellular Automaton can be understood in terms of the evolution of Cellular Automata.
