In Stephen Hawking’s 2012 film The Meaning of Life, the narrator describes Conway’s mathematical model as simulating “how a complex thing like the mind might come about from a basic set of rules,” revealing the overweening ambition

es. The drawings and binary figures are animated using algorithms from mathematician John Horton Conway’s 1970 Game of Life, a “cellular automaton.” Conway set up parameters for any square (“cell”) to be lit (“alive”) or dark (“dead”) in an infinite, two-dimensional grid. The rules are summarized as foll
