This is a must see site for anyone interested in Conway's Game of Life or just interested in logic. If you have never seen Conway's Game of Life in action before, then I recommend that you download Golly:

http://golly.sourceforge.net/

It comes with sample mechanisms. There are some amazing Turing Machines, complex communication devices and other amazing constructions all made using the Game of Life.

Pentadecathlon does a great job listing all the latest discoveries and innovations in the Game of Life, and even has RLE downloads of complicated mechanisms.

Excellent site! As an exercise of a new computer platform I used to write a simple life implementation. Its been a while since I paid any attention to wat was going on, thanks for posting this.

Do anyone know anything similar for 3d Life? I used to subscribe to a newsletter from Carter Bays covering new stuff in the field.

I'm sure you will be surprised by some of the amazing new innovations. Some of them I can't imagine how they were developed.

I don't know anything about 3D life.
